I have spent the past 6 months telling my partner that I can’t take on any more work. I keep taking on more and seem to find capacity but mainly because I am not following up or being responsive to my other clients. I’m starting to be bad at my job and I need to change it now. I love working with my partner but I think he doesn’t have any more to teach me and is in fact holding me back. How do I stay at my firm, keep a good relationship with my boss, but move on? Is it possible?

To be clear I take on more work because there might be a two week lull where it feels manageable. When it’s busy (like the whole quarantine) it’s very unmanageable and part of it is on me that I took on more work

I’m curious how long people were in the peri menopause phase? I’ve read it’s an average of 4 years but I’m curious what people’s experiences are. I believe I am late stage peri menopausal and my periods have been very irregular for the past 9 months ranging 13-60 days between periods. If anyone has any studies you could point me to, I’d love to see those as well! I’m 40 and my mom entered menopause at 41.
