Curious about your transition. I feel like I'd be better at it, more divergent thinking and exercise real people skills.
Are you working more hours now (but different mental load) than before?
How was your transition and what made you switch?
What was your journey like?
Which sector are you in and how is your job now?
Hey guys I'm teatering on the edge of whether having a kid is still something I want to do - I'm 38, which makes shit so much harder, and single - I've wasted a lot of time with partners who didn't even consider family. Guess I like a good project.
Aside from the logistics of surrogacy etc that are unique to my situation. I'm not super happy with some areas in my life ie. mental health, not having a partner, or even a solid community (or atleast it just feels like everyone is busy these days and things do feel quite lonely at times). It does feel really overwhelming and I'm also going through a bit of a midlife crisis and feel like I should have a great life before bringing any child into this world. I guess, if you've been in this situation, what were your considerations, what did you need to handle/take care of first before jumping into raising a family and feeling like it was the right decision?
Hey all, question for guys who are in senior/leadership positions in your careers or in corporate, what are your general feelings about your career prospects at the moment? Anyone in tech or tech adjacent jobs seriously considering switching to something completely different?
I was heads deep in AI at one point, but honestly just got really burnt out trying to consider leveraging it as a consultant or to start an ai focused agency/company because I see a need for it (follow a few agencies in my city of Toronto). But are any of you looking around at the younger generation capitlizaing on AI, and feeling like you're between giving up on 'persuing more money' vs finding something more meaningful? What's your thought process with how you assess your next career move, especially right now during what should be the peak years of your careers?
