How you deal with managers who want to constantly micro manage? I feel like this attitude is only towards me ( only woman in the team ) As much as I try to build the trust and deliver high cont'd.

I would have a conversation with him. And document the conversation. Ask him if there is a reason why he constantly feels the need to micromanage. If that doesn’t work, escalate it to HR. Have proof. I work for a similar jerk. But we got that under control... at least for now.

quality work ,he constantly wants to micro manage every task and even escalate. it's creating a toxic work environment for me and I don't know what to do. I've already brought very specific instances to the leadership but there is no improvement

Yup ditto, I’ve been there enough in life to know who has my back when the chips are on the table

Any thoughts or advice?

Did any of you ladies start having trouble sleeping till late once you turned 25-26? I used to be able to sleep till 9 am easily right until last year and now suddenly my body is up at 6:30 am and I can’t fall asleep. I’m frustrated because I want to sleep atleast till 7:30am. But can’t fall asleep once I’m up. I’m also tired when I wake up so it’s not like I had enough sleep. I cannot live like this for the rest of my life. What is wrong with me? 😭😭 Any suggestions appreciated!

I’m not sure if this happens to you, I’m constantly intimidated and feel judged by white men and women and/or people born in the US for having a strong foreign accent in the US. Nobody says that to my face, but I can see it in people’s actions. This has severely affected my confidence and I focus more on the way I pronounce some words rather than the content. How do I battle this situation? Would definitely like both perspectives.

Ok so. I have been on this journey for almost a year now to try and 'get to know and love myself' and I'm not there yet. I separated from my ex in March of 2020 and divorce was finalized in October 2020. I'm still sad, lost, angry etc. I'm trying/tried therapy, meditation, ayurveda, self help videos, books, but I'm not happy with myself and I don't think I know myself. I want to be happy alone before I meet anyone new. Any tips or advice on how I can effectively accomplish this? Thank you!

My husband yells at me in front of my 2 years old, even when he is scared. He needs to express his anger out before he can shut down. I am planning to leave him but I am hesitant because I am afraid this would negatively impact my son more, not having a father figure around much.... not the first time, my husband promises multiple time that at least he would control his anger in front of kid but never Lee up the promise...sometimes he would even throw stuff (not at me and my child)...
