I keep getting asked about the gap on my resume. My service was 2012–2022 and I'm struggling to translate what I did into language that resonates.
I've been turned down twice. Does anyone have experience with second-chance housing programs in Texas or the Southeast?
It's not the big things. It's the small daily interactions that catch me off guard. Anyone else feel this way in their first year?
I'm burned out but I have strong analytical skills and I'm good with people. Looking at UX research or health tech. Any advice?
My parents are devastated. I still love them and want a relationship but I can't pretend anymore. Has anyone navigated this?
