Surely you work in the daily environment, it is a world that does not stop if you feel that you have to have time for yourself, look for another type of work, it is impossible to escape from that.

When I was more in the news I dedicated myself to training passionately in the gym, it was the only thing that kept me sane in all that time, now I am an editor and my pace is slower and I have more time for myself.

Hobbies, hobbies, hobbies. You are already turning your passion into a career. You need something that brings you joy that is disconnected from your ability to put food on the table.

Making sure there is enough time for self care is so important. Go for walks, get enough sleep, make time for friends, and enjoy your hobbies.

Just heard that my district will have classroom and live-recording learning. I’m thankful because I now can feed my family, my newborn and a recent-sponsored wife! I’m scared because I’m almost 50 and I’m afraid I might catch the virus and die leaving behind my 1 month baby and a wife who is not legal in the state yet! The USCIS or Trump’s dept. thinks she’s not good enough to be in the US!! We applied for green card and SS card since August 2019!

Meeting with a career coach right now to discuss career options, putting it out there to destigmatize it. It's okay if you need help with a new directions.

Getting in my 8th month and starting to feel sore in my groin area. I read it’s because the baby is adding pressure down there. Do you know if it’s bad to do inner thigh exercises? I do easy floor exercises to stay fit/healthy during Covid, but the soreness (feels like slight muscle pain but it’s not) is making me wonder if I should stop.
