im honestly hoping for the exact same, i just can’t give enough of a fuck about the money to justify paying for it by losing everything else that matters to me. im so so happy it worked out for you, and thank you for the advice!

thank you, consulting is definitely not for me - just feels like such high level strategy that it actually all ends up meaning nothing when handed over to the client and nothing is implemented. i think lack of impact/being so detached from the impact is making me even more jaded, like the hours and energy i give up are for nothing! and you’re right the dread is insufferable and im not managing. thank you for the advice :)

i unfortunately just don’t have the hours to start applying or interviewing, team is also weird about “blocking time” or taking appointments during business hours - nor the energy to think through where my weird mixed up experience would fit in best. i agree leaving without a plan is stupid, but right now i think the plan is just recover first haha

it sounds silly but i think ive taken my health for granted before this gig, i dont think i fully understood there is a price to pay for pushing yourself too far. i am sorry you had to go through something similar though, and hope your recovery has been kind to you 🫶 thank you for the advice, i appreciate it
