Im so tired all the time, and I know work is part of it. Also, I have had bloodwork—not anemic, everything looks normal. My doctor suggested I look for a new job. How do you find the energy to do a job search when your job is tiring you out? Also, how likely is it that people are hiring right now? Thanks!

That is a real Catch-22. First of all, it's not a great time to be looking for work, so there's that. But if you want to pursue a job search, get into it slowly. If you're feeling exhausted, put aside a minimal amount of time, an hour each evening or whatever, to devote to finding a job. As you proceed it's possible you'll start to feel motivated and be inclined to put more time into the search. I know with myself sometimes I feel exhausted doing things I can't stand, but if it's something I see some value in I will find the energy to do it.

Thanks!

Did the bloodwork look into your hormone levels at all too? I think more women need to have their progesterone (and other hormones) evaluated because it can take such a toll on your mental health and energy levels. Menopause was the hardest phase of my career by far, even worse than being a new mom.

I'm doing this now, it's so beyond draining. Especially with two young kids at home. My day starts at 6 and doesn't really end until 8 when they're asleep. Finding the motivation to fill out applications after that is really hard. But I need to get out of here for the sake of my mental health, so I chug an energy drink and do it anyway.

Good luck!!!

Exactly, I knowwwwww. When I burned out, I gave myself a deadline: 30 minutes a day, max, to job hunt. Kept the engine running without running myself into the ground. HAve a clear idea of what you want and need for the next role, then apply with quality not quantity. What’s your ideal role actually look like?

Need your help 🐠 I feel like I‘m always sick (flue like symptoms ~2x per month). The doctors either just treat the symptoms or give me referral for a specialist for one or more symptoms, I feel like I‘m getting nowhere with that. Any advice on what tests I can ask for that helped you in the past? Any recommendations for a more complete checkup in Manhattan (ideally covered by most insurances)? TIA!
