I feel like having work 24/7 makes me feel unachieved… as a person. I’m just a guinea pig working and not interesting anymore. Has anyone felt this way? What did you guys do, like any hobbies or side projects?

My peers and I felt the same way! To offset that feeling, we all got into cycling! It makes it easier when you have friends or family around that can get into the same hobbies or side jobs as you.

I'm struggling with imposter syndrome. I'm from a working class background, c.10 years exp in marketing & c.3 years in snr leadership. I'm in an exe leadership team with all men. It's all very fluid. Frequent restructures. Bitching/gossiping at snr level.

I feel like I'm not good enough, dynamic enough, doing enough. I ask open qz, probing for feedback. It all seems positive/constructive. With the toxicity, I don't trust any of it. Does anyone have any suggestions to navigate and overcome IS?
