Yes! Training and managing people can be so tough!

I'm working on going back to school and finishing up my bachelors degree but I'm also a single mother of three kids under 10 and I'm working full-time, so it's really tough. Probably the toughest thing I've ever had to do. What about you?

I saved for 2-3 years to build my career and then had someone unlawfully take me to court which cost me my entire boat. Now I am trying to rebuild as a property manager but can't get in anywhere. Even assistant positions are very difficult.

Might return to my previous career. Real estate is not what I was told so far.

Anyone a manager? I’m recently diagnosed (26F) and I can’t help but beat myself up everytime I fall short of my to do list. Makes me feel like a huge disservice to my team. I’ve been trying vitamin D and working out, but it makes my “highs” and “low” SO extreme. The simplest things are so complex in my mind.

If anyone feels similar, how do you manage these feelings? I’m personally considering switching to an individual contributor role, but can’t help but feel like a disappointment if I do.
