Sooooo, full disclosure: I'm a male.

I bookmarked this site some time ago. I evidently discovered it surreptitiously while doing other online work. I love it. It has to be one of the most well-designed sites I have seen in a long time, as far as the front-end web development. But more importantly, it's the content. I can;t find anywhere on the site an "About Us' or similar page so your mission is not clearly evident. Still, it is obvious you are a network of professionals here to assist others, and it seems to be rather holistic in nature as well. I am struggling at the moment. Mid-life crisis could be one umbrella under which I could categorize what I am experiencing: career stalled; stuck as to where to go next when I grow up lol; lots of personal issues seeping into my workday; and many changes at work causing me to feel unsettled even there, the place where I usually rely on consistency. I have no professional network due to a move to this area and my job not affording me development opportunities. Truly I need a change to a position where I can once again feel fulfilled at his work. I find this site absolutely incredible for the sheer emotional outpouring of support you all give each other. I don't see that men are not welcome, so I hope it's OK if I hang around a bit! :) ???

Great overview, JDaisy! Very helpful. Yes- all welcome as long as here to offer support, advice and insights. I would suggest that you make a whole new set of 'friends" in your network on LinkedIn so that you have additional outreach. Join groups here that are of interest to you. Share more of what you are looking for and how someone might be able to help you!

Welcome! You are right about the support and advice we give each other. You're now part of the family. As for resources, the About feature is on the far left hand column or bottom of the page, depending on the size of your monitor. Note that I haven't been able to view that area on my small cell phone screen. The Community Guidelines and Partners and other great links are there as well. And be sure to check out Resources at the top of the page to find Events past, present and future and a number of other very cool categories. Again, welcome to a group whose main goal is engaging, encouraging and empowering others.
