Will you be staying in the healthcare industry when you move to HR? that seems like it would be the smoothest transition.

Since I’ve worked in pharmaceutical industry, it might be a smooth transition. However, I’m open to take challenges to go outside of healthcare.

Check out Glassdoor and hrjob.ca. That will at least give you an idea of the market right now and give you some direction.

Thanks for your suggestion!

A very important person in my life recently passed. I was named after her, she raised me, we were very close, and I was at her bedside when she passed.

I always thought she was invincible and immortal, even when she was in an obvious decline. I'll never be able to hug her again and it feels cruel. I want her back. I feel empty and weak without her.

Mental health has always been a struggle for me, and I've never lost someone so close before. I don't know how to handle this. Any advice?
