I'd love your advice on a career dilemma. I’ve been a Full-Stack Dev at a startup for 3 years, but my growth has stalled and motivation is low. My job search has also hit a wall.
​I’m considering a 6-month break to upskill and explore content creation; I have 1 year of savings. My parents suggest doing this after my 10-7 shift, but I'm too drained.
​As a manager, is a sabbatical to pivot too risky in this market, or is it a smart move?

I’m a first year associate (almost second year). I work at a national firm and I’m not a litigator. When I started with the firm, I was told I could work out of any office. Long story short, I regret choosing the office that I chose. I’d like to transfer to another office - is that a difficult ask? I’m licensed in the state I’d like to transfer to. I don’t know how to make this request.
