This might be you right now! 😂😂😂

Here are some signs of a workplace that you might want to leave and find a new position:

📍Fear of Retribution
📍Gossip
📍Lack of Confidence in Leadership
📍Lack of Communication
📍Fear of Sharing Your True Thoughts
📍Unrealistic Expectations

Sounds like your job? While you are seeking other employment, here are some ways for you to manage during your time there:

❤️Take Time for Yourself❤️

Your mental health is really important and working non-stop can take a toll on your mental wellness. Make "me time" non-negotiable and get out of the office for your lunch break or at least take a full break.

Listen to a podcast, write in your journal, or even do some light stretching to relieve some tension.

❤️Create a Timeline for Your Exit❤️

Though you don't actually know when you will leave, having a deadline helps you stay focused on your goal and helps remind you that this isn't forever.

This always helps you stay motivated. Reaching out to your friends and family to let them know you're seeking employment could help speed up the process.

❤️Separate Work and Home Life❤️

When you leave work for the day, learn to leave your work stress behind. Enjoy your life at home rather than bringing the toxicity and negativity of your workplace with you.

🤔What are some other strategies we can add to this list of coping?

Anger is an intensified version of softer emotions. So, when you’re too angry to talk, it’s best to explain yourself in the clearest possible terms.

If you’re not ready to talk about underlying emotions, simply say you need time to sort your thoughts.

If you’re able to process your feelings, then it’s time for specifics:

To be honest, I am angry, but it’s because I’m sad about _____, and worried about ______.
I’m angry because _____ and _____ and need some time to process this.

What are some ways you communicate your feelings when you're angry? 👇🏿

Let’s talk about effective communication because this clearly isn’t it 😂

So many of us are guilty of having similar behaviors knowing good and well we are upset

Effective communication can relieve a lot of stress and tension in your life because holding things in can lead to resentment and a lot of other negative emotions

When working on communication, try this:

📍 Identify your need
📍 Find a time + place for talking with your partner
📍Use “I” statement

Making these changes can be difficult especially when you’re not use to addressing your concerns directly

Try implementing these strategies on smaller things and work your way up to bigger concerns ❤️

Definitely a question that needs to be answered 😂

A first date is a great time to get to know someone so instead of asking random questions, here are some questions you can try:

❤️ What makes you happy or How do you like to spend your time

This gives you insight on the person and what they value and what they prioritize

❤️ Who are you closest to

This will give you cues about relationships and possibly develop into stories about how they grew up to make those connections

❤️ If you could wave a magic wand and have your life exactly the way you wanted, what would it look like five years from now

This is a classic question that therapist call “the million dollar question”. This will give you insight on their future goals

Asking open-ended questions allow the other person to express their true, authentic self.

It’s a good way to get a sense of who the person really is and if you think you would be compatible.

What are some other questions you like to ask on a first date 🤔👇🏼
