What do you do on the days you don't feel like the bosswoman? When you don't feel like you're capable of anything but cozying up and being lazy? When I have those days, I struggle to embrace them. I feel like I can't be that way when I have so much to do, and so many standards to live up to... and funnily enough, those thoughts only push me into having more days where I feel incompetent and useless. What's a healthier way? Would love for the wonderful women here to share their lessons learned!

Exactly what you said. The more you fight it, the harder your transition into the high energy, high focus and motivations days will be. Allow your cyclical nature to shine. Allow yourself to be. You don't have to be a hero everyday. And the work you do on the days you feel less than a hero still count.

I am a living, breathing animal that needs rest. I wasn’t put here to be productive but to enjoy my existence. Even really accomplished people are forgotten within a few generations and everyone will extract what they can from you, if you let them. Save some of you for yourself and just be cozy sometimes. Life ebbs and flows and ends.

In the middle of salary negotiations and just curious on what everyone thinks would be comp salary for this position: Ecomm director/ manager hybrid role. Thank you!
