I’ve realised that career growth hasn’t always come from big opportunities, sometimes it came from small responsibilities that built trust over time. What’s a small opportunity that helped move your career forward?

Being willing to do the "and then some." I have never said that something wasn't my job, and have always been willing to do what needs to be done. Going above and beyond has always helped me move my career forward.

Very true! I think this is the one thing we’re not really told too, you can’t expect opportunities to just appear

How do you define career growth? Is it more money?

More opportunities in the company, more trust and responsibility. Money is just a benefit of that

I offered to help with training someone new and I think that helped my manager see me wanting to progress

I went on a date last week and it went really well. We basically set up 2nd & 3rd dates that night. 2nd date's Friday for drinks and 3rd date is drag brunch. Date had to end pretty early bc she's in the med field and needs to wake up around 5am. I'm new to dating people my own gender and I want to make moves but I'm nervous/hesitant since I'm new to this. There was light touching, leaning in, eye contact, but I want to do more. Anything I should do on the 2nd date? How to initiate?
