I'm currently moving through some big (mostly positive) things in my professional sphere (and my life trajectory as a whole) and I am coming up against soooo much internal tension and resistance.
😰😓
Anyone relate to these kinds of growing pains? Appreciate for any words of wisdom from some of the older women... (Either older in years, or in big life experiences). I am pushing through but uhhhhgg..... It's a LOT.
YES, GURRLLL.
i just successfully completed my 3rd of 5 machine learning projects. i feel on top of the world, but i also a) feel exhausted mentally, emotionally and physically, b) feel like an imposter, and c) it felt like pure torture sticking with these projects and seeing them through. and i'm not even actually done and there's so much more to do! AND i just listened to the FDS podcast yesterday, the one where the ladies basically said if you don't already have programming/coding/tech as a skillset, there's kind of no point in learning now, it won't make you any money. 😫
i just tried to do a little bit every day. i enlisted people to help me, or even just sit there with me in the same room while i struggled. some days, when i was just too exhausted, i took a break and did something i really wanted to do, like weightlifting practice, or eating a chocolate croissant, or perusing the pages of The Female Strategy...
just. keep. going.
learn how to rest, not quit.
but also know when it's worth it to quit. there are no easy answers, only YOU can decide what's best for you.
Get it!!! My advice: get a kick ass female mentor in your field. Life. Changing . Mine sadly passed a few years back … but she is a huuuuge reason why I am where I am today.
I practise OM chants for this very thing. Humming is a proven confidence booster and simple brahamari should sort you out,
