PwC 🐠 - health insurance coverage. What are the deductibles for the high-deductible plans? Still want to use the HSA. Thanks!

Favorite workout or gym in Chicago? I'm looking to change it up, and also want to meet new people. I could just go for Equinox but I'm really on the fence

I struggle with imposter syndrome big time and want to start therapy, but I really don't want my husband to find out that I'm going to a therapist. It'd just be too embarassing. Is that awful of me?

There’s no excuse that by the age of 25 you have never tried therapy. I’m speaking directly to the demographic in this group who I’m sure over 95% of people in here are earning 6 figures. Key word: TRY. I understand it’s not for everyone but to have never even attempted seeking therapy is a injustice to yourself and the people around you.

Has anyone taken Cymbalta for depression / anxiety? Do you recommend it? I’m so scared of meds!! WhAt side effects to be aware of (short and long term)

Has anyone dealt with a therapist not being able to see you (virtually) while you are temporarily located in another state? I’m struggling with coordinating my work and when I’ll be in my home state with my sessions because apparently I can only be seen when I’m physically in my home state. Are there different types of lisences I should look for that would allow someone to treat me while traveling? It’s all very confusing…

Taking my first project with travel. A bit concerned about maintaining a healthy lifestyle while traveling M-Th for 3 months. Has anyone found a way to keep a good routine for staying in a gym/running and keeping a good diet while on the road?

Thanks in advance

If I originally got the Moderna vaccine, is it advisable (ie is it better protection against COVID) to get a Pfizer booster? I don’t see any info about which booster to get if you didn’t get J&J

Does anyone’s face freeze up when you start talking during a presentation? Idk if it’s my anxiety acting up physically or not. Mentally I dont feel that nervous, but my body tenses up physically.

First round of Provera and Letrozole complete but I’ve been spotting/bleeding for 11 days after taking the Provera to kick start a cycle. Would love to hear others’ experiences with these pills!

Just completed my last shift in the ICU. I'm glad to be shifting back to the Maternatity ward. It was exhausting, and emotionally draining working with such sick patients. I know the work we did made a big difference, but I'm glad to go back to my favorite role!

TTC for a while now, and I think my mind/body’s playing tricks on me. I didn’t have my regular period this cycle, more like spotting, and have bouts of nausea but the home kits have been negative. It’s trying to go through this every month.

Struggling with chronic headaches and jaw tension. Any recommendations for specialists in Toronto?
Also curious if anyone has tried botox for those as I’ve heard of it but cautious..

What are peoples thoughts on lockdown? Seems weird that it is likely to continue beyond April given all vulnerable will have had at least their first vaccine by then

I don't want to hear the judgement for this question. Isabel- I'm reaching a plateau in my weight loss. I'm average weight for my build but def on the heavier end. Is there a wight loss pill or hunger suppressant the industry recommends?

Quit the booze back in September. It mostly hasn't been that hard but I can't get a grip on my emotions this week. Feeling overwhelming sadness for no real reason. (Cont)

Wondering what the salary is for this position throughout different firms. Anyone willing to share?

Anybody have to take time off for long-covid? How has your HR handled it? I feel like any info I have gotten on FMLA and disability is because I’ve brought it up and have had to follow up multiple times.

What are some good ways to get into management?
I am an individual contributor with ~8 years of experience and a strong track record. I enjoy my work, but am getting a little burnt out being directly customer facing.

For the NJ folks who work in NYC - my potential new employer has offices in both NJ and NYC. The NJ office is a 1.5 hour drive vs. NYC ~40 min commute via train. Still very much hybrid work arrangement. Given the option, which office would you prefer to be based out of and why? Mostly asking from a tax perspective. While I believe it’ll even out when filing, I’d be paying state tax in both states throughout the year, right?

Has anyone bought/ done the HRCI Certificate in Diversity and Inclusion in HR Management? I already have my PHR, but I’m looking to gain more knowledge/skills and beef up my resume. Is it worth doing? The course is $239 and you get 12 Recert credits with it.

Is it true that most personal trainers at commercial gyms aren’t great? Or is that a misconception? I’ve heard this from a few people and I’ve also had a couple bad experiences.

FWIW, I’m about to join a gym (either chelsea piers fitness or crunch fitness) and looking to get a PT to improve my form, provide a meal plan, and set a routine.

Any on Forward for Health Care?

Interested to hear if anyone is using Forward for their primary health care service?
Thinking about joining.
Interesting subscription based cost model but basically pushing interactive, team based approach to long term health care with a good blend of tech and analytics built in.
