I'm 1 out of 4 siblings, I make the most out of my siblings, do you sometimes double down or not share your accomplishments with your family to NOT seem you are "showing off"? Or should I just live my life?

If i were you I wouldn’t dim my light per se but I would be cognizant of how it might make them feel at times. Offer a “I wanna see you doing this with me” or “sibling goals” trip as motivation. If they are truly family they always root you on and have best interest at heart anyway win or lose. They might actually be proud to boast your accomplishments

Live your best life, but be aware of what you share and in what setting. I tend not to share my salary with family members for several reasons. The best way to motivate and inspire people your siblings is to be relatable and lead by example.

I share nothing, unless asked. But, I’m also pretty private in nature so 🤷🏾‍♀️

Just live your life. I get where you are coming from but you should be proud. And your siblings should be proud of you as well.

I have 1 one year old and have told my husband that I want to get divorced. He is being immature about the process and is just trying to make everything difficult. Sometimes he says he will move out, then he says the baby and I should, sometimes he says he wants custody when the real reason im leaving is his lack of interest amd resppnsibility toward our family. I can tell he is hurt and is upset that i dont love him anymore and want to get everything ready to make the exit easy. How do I start?

Unsure if my bf and I are incompatible or if I’m not compromising enough. How do you know the difference? He has so many great qualities that I love but also lacks some qualities that I would like to have but idk if I would be giving up on someone that is great for little things.

Reunited with an ex and things moved very fast with the two of us spending a lot of time and nights together but we waited to consummate the “relationship”. Recently, he shared that he wasn’t in a position to be in a relationship right now and felt like he didn’t have enough to offer me but he cared deeply for me and was very attracted to me. Admittedly, he isn’t financially well-off and is heading back to school to finish his degree (we’re in our 30s) but it still hurts a lot.

Hey sweet ladies, C (26 male) this side. Hope you are keeping safe and healthy!

About me? People usually say I am their go to person for when they need emotional support, advise about relationships and when they feel low, maybe because I help them cheer up again and be the ear they need.

I am a great listener too. I can go on listening to you if you feel low, won't say a word until you are finished, will hold your hand when you are done and try to bring your sweet smile back!

In the past, lawyer wellness and lawyer discipline/character fitness for bar applicants have existed in silos. I’d like to finally form a bridge between lawyer disciple and lawyer wellness and focus on prevention. When we think of lawyer discipline, we automatically think of outrageous behavior like stealing money. Those are extreme. The common cases are too stressed out and forgetting deadlines or death of a loved one and not having time to call clients back. Cont’d
