You may be an Empath. Check out the traits of an Empath and coping mechanisms. I am an Empath too and have taken to meditation to keep centering myself.

likehelpful

Empaths are generally more sensitive than normal and the weight of the emotions can cause us to be sad or depressed often. The documentary “Sensitive: The Untold Story” describes pretty well the lives of Empaths and highly sensitive people. For me personally, the only healthy way I’ve found to deal with being an Empath is to go into deep meditation and through my meditation try to radiate positive energy and healing vibes from my core. I find tremendous peace in practicing Tonglen as I see myself as a vessel that can take in hurt and radiate love. I know this all sounds woo woo to many people, however when you learn to accept that we are all interconnected and the choice of whether to radiate positive energy or negative energy is fully within our control, then we start to see our place in this world differently.

I remember my first client!

Hi, been stuck in the contract analysis/review cycle. I have asked a few recruiters how to make a lateral move into in-house. They told me to focus on contract management, which I have been doing for the past year. Now that I have, are there any sites besides “jobscan” that I can use to make sure my resume fits the job descriptions? Does anybody know any recruiters that could help me, as well?

I’ve done some soul searching of late and established I’d love to be offered a FTE role in my current company. I think this is partly due to never having had a full time job which I’ve enjoyed and which have valued my contributions. I think this is due to wanting to feel accepted. I know acceptance needs to start with me etc but I think redundancy and workplace gaslighting has meant I’ve never achieved growth and status in one company where I can truly grow. Anyone else has this?
