Helping My Friend Find Her Way Back

Ever watched someone you love lose their spark? My friend, once the definition of ambition, has been through hell and back. After a traumatic event, she lost her job and her confidence, and now even a simple walk outside feels like a victory. She refuses financial help and therapy seems out of reach. But I can’t just stand by and do nothing. I want her to find a low-pressure job—maybe part-time or remote—something that lets her dip her toes back into the working world without drowning in stress. Sometimes, all we need is a gentle nudge, not a shove. If you’ve ever helped someone rebuild from the ground up, how did you do it? Any advice for jobs that are forgiving and flexible? 🫶 #CareerRestart #MentalHealth #Support #JobCareer
