Hey ya’ll! Finally motivated enough to reset and build a workout routine, someone please inspire me with a weekly schedule 🙏

For context, F that’s skinny fat that needs to tone up within 55 days for a destination wedding. I eat pretty healthy but hard for me to get myself to workout daily 😬

Hi Ladies, I’m 31 yrs old I‘m in birth control right now and will be starting Stims from 08/29 as part of IVF treatment. This is my first time IVF, all my results are normal but due to male factor had to go with IVF, and my insurance is not covering for my drug:Follistim-900 unit Pen/Gonal-F, my doctor prescribed Follistim. So I was doing price match for both in Freedom fertility and Village Pharmacy. I see Follistim is costing $2741 and Gonal-F is $847(due to some discount), which is best one?

Thoughts on the Bill Michael resignation email we got? I’ve heard the same commentary and worse from my bosses about covid being ‘fake’ or ‘ over exaggerated’ and have been told by my bosses to expect working longer hours without hanging time to eat — but it seems it doesn’t matter unless unless there’s an article written about it that the media puts out.... one thing to enforce our values on only those getting caught in the spotlight for it.

Has anyone used Thesis to help manage their ADHD? I’ve been worried about using stimulants and it seems like a great alternative, but doubt it would be covered by insurance…

I was so good about not spending my $$$ on unnecessary purchases. However due to depression I’ve been buying as a way of comfort. Anyone know how to stop this vicious cycle?

Tips for just getting started, with the day especially, or even just a bad task later on after a few productive hours? I can have a stack of billables to do, but if it isn’t truly urgent, it’s just like a giant mental wall preventing me from getting things done. Medicine doesn’t help. It’s like I need the fear of god in me to get anything done and the moment I’m not scared of getting fired, I just... can’t. Things are OK at 2 am for some reason though.

Has anyone has success taking vyvanse every three days or every other day? Typically take 50mg daily but the side effects have become difficult - trouble falling asleep, increase in anxiety- but not taking it isn’t an option for me as it’s nearly impossible for to stay focused with work. Just curious about others experiences before I raise with my doctor.

3. At what week did you ‘graduate’ from your RE?

I am fairly new to the pharma industry (in for about 3 years). I recently was promoted to a global program manager role and while the programs I manage aren’t terribly complex, I’m finding it difficult to be confident when everyone I interact with is senior level (Director and above). I feel like I’m starting my career at the top. Any recommendations on how I can develop my drug development knowledge and skill set?

I was reached out on LinkedIn by a design manager for a get-to-know call. I have never done a screening call with a design manager before. I haven’t sent her my resume— She didn’t ask, and I completely forgot.
My resume has my portfolio website and a password, but I kinda want to chat with her before sharing my work, so she can see how passionate I am and I am willing to learn before she sees my work. Is it okay if I don’t share my resume before the screening call? Or omit link to my website?

Hey folks, I am starting soon as a Manager. How is the best way to blend in with people? Is there anything I will need to know, or pay attention to about the IQVIA culture? I am excited, but I also want to meet the people with the right attitude.

I think I bombed a case interview with Chartis for an associate consultant position. The case was in excel and required me to manipulate the data via share screen with the interviewer. I couldn’t get some functions to work and was struggling to go through the 16 page PDF of data. I had several answers correct but needed to walk through the remaining questions with some guidance. My other 3 case interviews went well and I had great conversation with the partner for behavioral interview. Thoughts?

Do I need to get a screen protector for Macbook Air?

SO recently got a job offer in OC. With wfh I likely won’t need to go to DTLA to the office. And for client travel I could go to SNA/LAX once a week if need be. We’re in our late 20s making $325k no kids. Where would be a good place to move/buy? I’ve seen laguna mentioned but Zillow house prices there are absurd. Newport seems too conservative given we’re POC. Irvine too stale for my liking unless there are spots in Irvine other than spectrum that I haven’t been to. Thanks!
