    Hi Anita,

    Hope you have a good weekend.

    I had the call with the ‘career shift’ company and it was helpful. They ultimatley said i need to think of ideas as big and wide and then speak to people, different people and try and learn about those industries and link them back to my key values.

    It was nice to hear that other people have the same feelings as me and i’m not alone.

    I still know there is a long way to go but will continue to try my best.

    Thanks Anita,

    I do feel like I’m carrying a lot and unsure why. Think it’s intrinsic. I feel like if I walk away from this well-paid job that I’ve failed. That coupled with the doubt/uncertainty of what comes next is making me overthink a lot and ultimately bringing me down.

    Hi Anita,

    Hope you are well.

    I have the session this coming Saturday. I am really hoping it helps as currently struggling mentally with work. It’s Monday morning here and just got to work as I write this. I just feel like I’m out of my depth with no way out and trying to be positive and do my best but with no real guidance or support and the world expected of me. Deep breaths and take it task by task.

    Hi Anita,

    I really appreciate you staying in touch on this and appreciate any help/support on the next move. I will be in touch on this once I have locked a time in with the company.

    Thanks

    Hello Anita,

    Thanks for checking in.

    I am doing my best. Outside of work, things are good but inside of work it is still a battle. Ultimately I want to try and move on/pivot into something else but struggling to put a solid plan in place here. I have found a ‘career shifter’ type company that I am considering trying. Thanks for checking in.

    Thanks Anita,

    I just feel lost with it all at the moment tbh.

    I want to try form an exit but not too sure where to begin without taking a financial hit which will lead to issues elsewhere.

    Thanks Anita,

    I do like to keep you updated and write things down here from time to time.

    Yesterday was a tough day where I felt overwhelmed for large points in the office but today is a new day and I’m ready to go again and do my best.

    Hi Anita,

    Hope all is well.

    I have begun to make enquiries about a life/career coach and will consider my options there once I have spoken with someone.

    I continue to do my best in the role and look after myself out side of work with fresh air, exercise and reading. I have started to reach out to a couple of recruitors to see what options are out there and will also continue to look myself for any openings.

    Working for myself is something I also want to explore.

    Hi Anita,

    The presentation was yesterday and went ok I think. I did my best and that is the main thing.

    Still want to try and find something i enjoy more but the 6 month notice period does concern me. I am hoping to have a relaxing weekend where I can think.

    Thanks

    Hi Anita,

    Appreciate the reply as always, I am ok with putting the presentation together. It’s more delivering it to a large group. I always get very nervous etc and worry about it until it’s done. Thanks

    Hi Anita,

    Hope you have a good weekend!

    I have a bit of the Sunday blues today. I found out late last week i will needed to do a big presentation on Tuesday to 100+ people.

    Public speaking to a crowd like that isn’t something I generally enjoy and I do feel a little anxious about it. I will try and prepare the best I can for it tomorrow and just do my best.

    Hi Anita,

    I hope you had a good weekend.

    I had a good weekend celebrating my partners birthday this weekend and have been back to work today.

    I think I will consider a life/career coach of some sort as talking about this more freely will likely help me. I will continue with my gratitude, exercise and calm app to try and manage through this period the best I can while I figure things out longer term.

    Hi Anita,

    Thanks for the reply and words, it’s much appreciated. It’s my partners bday this weekend so I will stay positive for that but once that is out the way I think I will try and sit down with her and tell her how I have really been feeling as I don’t want it to impact our relationship in anyway.

    I think I will also consider a career coach of some description so will begin to look into this.

    Thanks

    Hi Anita,

    I am continuing with my gratitude morning and night and use of my calm app.
    While all of this is helping, I am still getting feelings of anxiety and overwhelm regarding work, and it has impacted my sleep. I have a good job and good salary and that is hard to walk away from, I also feel a little lost in terms of I don’t know what to step into next.
    We have some savings but don’t want to use those and I also don’t want to feel like a failure by walking away. I do try and talk to my partner and friends but deep down I know I don’t tell them the whole story and how I have been trying to battle and cope through this tough period.

    Thanks as always

    Hi Anita,

    As always, thanks for the response.

    Outside of what I am doing, how else would you recommend I express the feelings?

    I have a couple of friends I exchange messages with and my partner knows to a point but probably not the full extent as I don’t want to be overly negative about things to her as she is also trying to practice gratitude and manifestation and being positive so conscious I shouldn’t lower her ‘vibe’. Thanks
