First of all, that’s such wonderful news! These articles might help you! Don’t feel discouraged. When I was interviewing, I told them what I needed. Some places accepted, others had issues with it and I knew those places weren’t the right fit! Don’t be afraid to ask for what you need. If a company likes you and wants you, they’ll make sure it works.

I read this super interesting article about how big companies like Toyota are investing in social-emotional training for their employees and seeing massive benefits. I actually think this could be a whole separate class for students of all ages. Learning about conflict resolution, growing your own self-regulation skills...it's really important.

My anxiety has been at bay after changing my job and just feeling like I HAVE control over my life. But now it's back because I feel like I'm behind in other aspects of my life (I.e dating).

I've been on the apps too and it's just... more demotivating honestly than anything else

Stupid Question- We have been thinking for IVF and trying to understand with this process, is there any difference in the health and life of the child as compared to a child born without IVF.

This is not very old technology and not much studies as well.
