This is usually the slowest time of the year, but I am finding myself more busy and tired than ever. Really trying to stay motivated and in high spirits because being tired from working is a good problem to have. But I’m struggling to find the light at the end of the tunnel…

I feel this. I am tired to my core. I am working harder than ever just to have the least buying power I've ever had, while also dealing with the mental load of everything that is happening on the news. I think a lot of us are reaching some kind of breaking point.

I feel you. The holiday season wiped me out, and things haven't slowed down enough after for me to feel like I'm back to my normal self. I'm just treading water and trying to make it through each shift right now.

Yeah in super tired at work too. Bad weather doesn’t help. Maybe you need to plan some time off? Find something to look forward to!

Are you able to start setting aside small chunks of time that are just for you? Even 20 minutes a day for reading, playing guitar, exercising, whatever it is that makes you happy.

I hope it gets better for all of us! It’s taxing physically and mentally. Two consecutive days off would be nice. And maybe some reassurance that the sacrifices that I’m making will amount to something

I hear you—being busy can feel like a “good problem,” but it’s still exhausting. Hang in there, the hard work will pay off, and the slower pace will eventually come. Small wins and breaks can help you spot that light at the end of the tunnel.

Name the most ridiculous micro-managing by partners that you experience.

I’ll go first: MP told me that on initial emails, I am always to start with “Hello [name],” but after the initial email, I am not to address her by name again in the same thread. Initial greeting can only be “Hello [name] ” because just first name is too brisk and a “Hi [name]” is too informal. Had a 5 minute, in depth conversation as to why she prefers it this way…
