I’ve got a master’s degree, a mountain of student debt, and a job title that sounds impressive—Learning and Development Specialist at a nonprofit in New York. But here’s the kicker: I’m barely scraping by on less than $60K, and the stress is eating me alive. Every night, I’m the last one out of the office, and my friends think I’m living the dream. If only they knew! I can’t remember the last time I left work before 7pm, or the last time I didn’t wake up dreading another day of endless emails and impossible expectations. Is there really a way to make a decent living without sacrificing your sanity? If you’ve cracked the code, I’m all ears—because right now, I’m running on fumes and coffee. Anyone else out there feeling the same? 🥲 #CareerStruggles #WorkLifeBalance #JobStress #JobCareer
