Has anyone switched from coffee -> tea successfully? Do you find that caffeine from tea sustains you throughout the day?

For me, tea is a slower and more gradual high than coffee. Coffee (especially espresso drinks like lattes) are immediate to kick in and to crash. I do need more tea throughout the day than I do coffee (I drink about three cups a day) but I don’t get jitters.

I feel much better when I drink tea than coffee. I don’t get the jitters like I did with coffee

I have a couple times for various reasons. What helped me was to keep an electric kettle in my office so I could make a cup of tea whenever I wanted without having to leave my office. You’ll definitely need more tea than coffee for the same caffeine hit, but I don’t notice a crash with tea like I do with coffee.

Yes. I switched and started brewing loose leaf black tea in a French press, which gave me about three mug fills throughly the morning. I found it absolutely sustained me. I think it is still a good amount of caffeine, so if trying to specifically cut out caffeine it may not be the best option. But for me, helped me get the caffeine jolt without the upset coffee stomach.

Time to get myself a French press. Thank you!

Went from espresso to tea to green tea pills to no caffeine. It was difficult at first because I went through withdrawal but it got better and I found that I slept better.

I switched to Yerba mate-based drinks. Which ended up being an error, because now what I drink is higher caffeine than coffee and I’m hopelessly dependent.

For the married and/engaged ladies, did you have any pre-wedding jitters? I recently got engaged (yay!) and I have felt for a very long time that my partner truly is my soulmate. I don’t have any reservations or hang ups about marrying him, but the sole idea of a lifetime physically makes me anxious. I feel guilty having these feelings when I couldn’t be more certain about the decision to marry him. Can anyone else relate?

And I kind of wish I could post before/after pics because apparently I was very bloated. I've been focusing on keeping up with my hydration at home. Thx ladies!

Fellow millennial lawyers: tell me, in general terms, 1 or 2 clients you acquired and how you acquired them. I feel like the suggested strategies for developing business are always the same: network, build your brand (hate this phrase), market yourself on LinkedIn, etc. Does any of this work? Seems to me to that most business development comes from long-standing contacts (e.g. your childhood best friend is now CEO and needs legal services), so I’m curious how other attorneys developed business.

I quit. I was respectful. Thankfully, every person I have told has been so nice, and I wasn't immediately bounced out by my leadership (which has happened), but I have been surprised by my own bittersweet tears. If they actually cared, why didn't they say so sooner? I gave so much, and I was consumed by this organization. I invested in them, but my investment and dedication were not reciprocated, which is why I ever even entertained leaving. I don't know why it hurts, but it really, really does.
