I have very hard boundaries set from when I started, when it was time to leave or get to a stopping point I would leave/log off no questions asked. When people would message me after hours I wouldn’t respond until next business day and there’s been no back lash for doing this for years so this is how I set that boundary to be able to have my 5-9pm/am dedicated to me.

This is a good question. It’s hard to prioritize myself, even though I know a happier/healthier me is more productive at work. I just try little things every day. It’s all I can do.

I keep consistent hours

So I had been working as medical interpreter up to the early part of this year. Today, during an interview, the Director with whom I was interviewing genuinely urged me to consider pursuing a career as a PA or even attempt to go to medical school. I had considered it in passing before but today was about the third or fourth time that someone had earnestly nudged me in that direction. Has anyone here made such a career pivot before? I love working in healthcare, there’s nothing like it.
