Everything seems so new in so many ways.
First off, I never thought I would blog. And honestly, I know I will likely be talking to myself on this endeavor. But alas, here I sit, with a million and one thoughts that beg to be put out there somewhere… even if it’s just for me.
Leaving my last job at Latham & Watkins was probably the toughest adjustment I have had to make in some time. When I took the position, I knew exactly what was going to happen and it came to fruition. I did it because it was a change from everything I had done to that point, but if I’m honest, I knew it wasn’t going to be forever.
It was 10000% corporate. I got used to the perks, the normal hours, the guaranteed pay, INSURANCE, and the lack of stress. It was the lowest stress job I’ve ever had in my entire life and I mean that with the utmost appreciation because I needed it. However working for a law firm was never what I wanted and I knew it would eventually eat me up inside.
So now I’m back. Uncertain. Stressed. Paying for my own insurance. But like the pic above, it’s like looking at the storm ahead but also seeing what may be behind it.
Let’s sail.
