I feel like I’ve lost myself since joining McK. My whole world has become about work.

Is this growing up or do I need to make a career change?

Does anyone have any suggestions for good Facebook groups or sites to apartment hunt with in Boston? I am moving to Boston from Europe at the end of September and looking for a place to rent near DT beginning October 1 with a budget of $2,800/month. All the Facebook groups I looked at look more catered towards university students and the apartments on sites I've looked at (i.e. Trulia/Zillow/Craigslist) look dingy.

Hi all. I can't help but feel that my current 'Digital Managing Partner' job title is a little too niche when it comes to LinkedIn job/resume keyword relevance, particularly outside of a media agency environment. However, a 'Digital Director' title feels too junior and 'Managing Director' maybe a little more senior. Any logical suggestions please? Thanks
