[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Same old covid story. Lost my job, have applied to dozens, no leads. I'm coming to the realization that I'm too old and unqualified for much of anything anymore. But cooking and cleaning all days isn't satisfying - how do I make it so? How do I change my mindset?[/quote] I’m a sahm and I hate cleaning and cooking. What I *do* like is not being rushed all the time. Being able to be really intentional with my time, esp with husband and kids. I’m able to run errands and exercise and complete hobbies while kids are in school. Then be present when everyone is home. When I was working, I was just stretched too thin. Everything felt rushed. It was hard to just BE. OP, if you don’t know who you are and what you enjoy doing with a little down time, now’s a great time to figure it out. Do you know your enneagram? What fills you up? What drains you? Start journaling. Soul search. The job will come. Find you first. [/quote]
