🌱 Slow progress is still progress. Maybe you didn’t check off everything on your to-do list, but you kept showing up. Maybe you had a hard conversation, took a break you actually needed, or just tried. Whatever your version of growth looks like this week — it counts. Drop a small win you’re proud of, even if it feels tiny. Someone else might need the reminder that trying is enough 💬💖

After putting it off for way too long, I finally spent a day completely updating my resume and LinkedIn. I told myself if I didn't get a raise after my review this year I was going to start searching for a new job. My review was in March, and I didn't get the raise or promotion. I spent the last few weeks being bummed out and couldn't find the energy to do something about it. I finally got sick of the self pitying, got everything updated and started applying to jobs Wednesday. Haven't heard anything yet (obviously), but it still feels good to be taking action to get out of here!

Honestly just making it through the week without skipping therapy or ghosting my inbox feels like a win. I didn’t do everything, but I didn’t give up either. That counts right?

Got out of bed early three days in a row this week and made a real breakfast. Not huge, but it helped my whole day feel more manageable. Progress is progress.

Finished my loop for a marketing role 2 weeks ago, and got an email the next day that they wanted to give me an offer. Had my initial call with recruiter to put the offer together. It was lower than I expected, and we ended that call positively as I needed some time to consider, and we agreed to follow up in a few days. It’s now been a week and both recruiters have been unresponsive. Did I just lose this offer bc I tried to negotiate a more equitable comp pack, or is it a slow process?
