How do I tell my clients? I cannot do this anymore, looking back all the signs were there.. probably for a year or so. But I've just gotten to the point now I'm resentful of work. A business in once built to multi 6 figures all down the drain because I'm burnt out, overworked. My home/family life is starting to get better now that I've back off working so much. I never feel like I'm succeeding at both

Do I tell my clients for personal reasons I'm closing? Or just say I need to end contracts?

I'm 35 yo mom who runs her own business (for now) and am making a career pivot to social work. I'm having a really hard time picking a "path". I'm mapped out a few options but am having trouble figuring out what's best

Online;

Gen Eds with Sophia Learning, then Umass Global BSW -> UNE for MSW. This would be mostly online aside from field placement and I could start in August in the BSW program

In Person;

Gen Eds at community college, BSW at a state school (thinking RIC) -> MSW at same school if possible. This would be longer, probably not starting BSW for a year.

The flexibility of online is most attractive because of mom life. My husband is an LEO and doesn't have job flexibility and works 2nd shift so night classes are not an option.. but I'm afraid life will get in the way and make it hard. The structure of class is appealing for that reason, but I have to think about being available for my kid.

Is mostly online looked down on? I think that's one of the reasons I'm looking at the traditional school route but that's also built for young adults without the same responsibilities. Any advice is greatly appreciated!

Hi all,

I'm making a total career pivot, right now I run a revenue cycle business and I'm so burnt out. I'm starting the process of going back to school for social work. My end goal is to work in the maternal mental health field..

I'd love to find a new job while I'm in school that is a step in the right direction for my end goal. Any suggestions what to look for?
