I’d like to have suggestions on up-skilling myself..

I have 8+ years of work exp primarily into Tech Sales and have gone through the entire process of Sales and now I’m comfortable into Farming and Account Management positions, I have a MBA in Marketing if that helps..

Would like to know what should I do (any courses) in order to climb the ladder and move into Leadership Roles?

Looking for some honest advice, thanks!

Higher offers at 27-28 with more fixed pay is from contract and hire/fire type companies. Mostly indirect hiring instead of direct employment with the final employer, means higher pay with lower jon security - we get little more pay, companies get the option to let go with ease later!

On the topic of intimacy with partners… I’ve been with my boyfriend for 2 years and the past year his libido has dropped to zero. Mostly due to work stress (he says). Whenever I try to initiate, he always shuts me down and says he’s not in the mood. I even touch him and he gets hard but stops me as soon as I try to unzip him. We went from once a week to maybe once a quarter.

I’ve talked to him about it and he says I should take care of myself. So frustrated. 😭😭
