I always hear/read people saying that partner lives are so difficult and they're working all of the time. Is that really the case? Past 18 months aside, my perception is that they have tremendous flexibility in their schedules. Partners with younger children are generally able to either put their kids to bed or start their day with them.
I'm not trying to downplay that Partners work hard, but the way. I just don't see it as crippling to personal life as ppl make it seem to be.

Any PMs make the jump from advertising to healthcare or tech? Or any advice on how to break into those industries? I currently have 6 years experience in the digital/creative space and am extremely burnt out. Looking for normal hours, less toxicity and politics and to get my life back. 😭

Sorry y'all, but I just have to put this into the universe! I wasted 10 years of my life on a man who did me so dirty! He literally told me I was his soulmate while he was cheating and got another woman pregnant. Fast forward 4 years later, I just married the love of my life. I found out that he called a mutual friend upset saying that he can't believe how bad he messed up. Call me petty but after everything he put me through, it makes my entire year that he's the one who's crying now!!! 🙌

I’m 25, great savings and capital available and love to travel but lack friends who can afford or rather desire to travel… so hard to find traveling friends these days

So I started a new job a few months ago at an agency. Though my work performance is good I have been extremely stressed and anxious nonstop since day one. The work pace and load is significant. Even my spouse can tell a difference in me. The pay is good, but at what point is your mental health worth more than a paycheck? Is this new job blues or is this a sign of toxicity? Should I stay or should I go?

How's everyone doing? I was on social media today and reading about the Adam Toledo video and it took me back to last June, which on top of the pain from seeing this racist system continue to win out, June was my lowest billing month and hurt my confidence about hitting hours compared to my white peers.

How are other people dealing with 1) trauma of another racist murder by cops and 2) impact on work? I am not black, so my pain does not compare but I can't act like things are fine either...

Hoping this doesn’t turn controversial. Should I be teaching my young kids to read Quran in Arabic (so learn a new language just to read Quran but no value otherwise), or skip Arabic and have them read transliteration (so like Alhamdu lilahi) or third option to just read in English the translation where they will actually understand? I mean, I spend 100 dollars a week on a tutor to teach them Arabic. My parents spent thousands and I can barely read it now and prefer transliteration.thoughts?

Thoughts?
