Working in a “non-major” market, I sometimes feel out of the loop of the broader ad world, but I’m grateful we can come together to complain about consultants. 💖

I’m thinking about increasing my wealth but wanted to see what options I have. I don’t know much about stocks. I know real estate is a good way but not sure I have enough money for a second home right now. What other ways do you make extra income? My background is in audit, anything I can do with that in the side?

Hello there! I currently work in billing at a medical office. I got my Bachelors in Psychology a few years ago but I couldn’t find a position that seemed like a good option for me that was well paying and fulfilling. I tried working as a tech at an Applied Behavior Analysis clinic but it wasn’t a good fit. I’m hesitant to try case management or social work because I worry I won’t like it but I want to use my degree in Psychology. Does anyone have any ideas for me?

I feel like my track record of saying "yes" to everything is coming back to bite me. I'm glad pp recognize me as a team player & know they can lean on me, but I'm now swamped with side projects w/ quick TATs, ON TOP of my reg work for clients. How do u say "I physically can't do all of this" without disappointing some1? Something's gotta give, at this point, as I'm burning weekend hrs to keep up. But I fear losing my rep as a hard worker.

I got laid off in January and have been trying to find a new job since. I keep making it to the phone interview and sometimes a second interview, but always get ghosted. It’s so disheartening.

I have too much experience for an internship, and I have too little to be the top choice for copywriter roles. I know I’m a good writer, I know what I’m capable of, but it’s so exhausting trying to convince people. They always like my book but it’s never enough to get the gig. What can I do?
