Green with Envy? How to Handle Financial Jealousy
Do you ever find yourself scrolling through social media thinking on how on earth does everyone afford to be on vacation all time? And then feel like a loser because your life isn’t as fabulous? Well you’re not alone. Financial envy is real. Here’s 3 ways you cut that negativity out of your life:
1. STOP SCROLLING
“Keeping up with the Jones’s” has become exacerbated in today’s social media driven society. We all too often seem to forget that someone’s Instagram is a highlight reel of their life. Don’t judge your behind-the-scenes mess to someone else’s highlight reel. I feel it myself when scrolling – how can she afford to go to Tulum AGAIN?! If you find yourself going down this rabbit hole, stop following or hide those accounts. Out of sight, out of mind. And an added bonus…your budget will thank you for it. Charles Schwab conducted its 2019 Modern Wealth Survey & respondents identified social media as the biggest “bad influence” in their spending habits. Cutting out negative thoughts & unnecessary spending, it’s a win-win.
2. DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT
Let whatever you’re feeling fuel you to make the changes you need to move forward, whether it is looking for a better paying job, asking for that raise, or changing your lifestyle so you can save more money. We don’t have endless amounts of dollars each month to spend. So you really need to use the dollars you do have intentionally. I want you to be living your best life today and in 20 years from now. Think about what that looks like for you – heck, make a vision board – then take a look at your spending habits…do they line up? If yes, awesome. If not, think about that vision board when you make spending decisions.
3. GIVE YOURSELF A BREAK
One of the most important things you need to remember about personal finance is that its PERSONAL. Your situation is different than your friends and from everyone else on the planet. There will always be people who have more than you and there will always be people with less than you. That’s ok! Your net worth is NOT your self-worth. Take a deep breath – your student loans or credit card debt don’t define you. So don’t let them.

Hi,
I wanted to get some other perspectives from anyone that has become a mum and feels like they need to/want to take a step back in their career? I don't know if my experience is unusual or if this is a common thing that happens. I have a very limited village, so any illness or issue means I have to take time off work etc. and progressing in my career in a high stress environment doesn't feel sustainable alongside the home life pressure. Is anyone willing to share their experiences?

Tired of filling out job application forms? You are not alone!
Job searching can be draining, and one of the biggest hurdles is the sheer volume of applications. Don't let application fatigue slow you down. Here's a simple, step-by-step guide to help you power through:
Step 1: Optimize Your Resume for Each Role, Efficiently!
Instead of rewriting your entire resume for every job, focus on targeted tweaks. Identify 3-5 keywords from the job description and make sure they appear naturally in your resume, especially in your summary and experience sections. Use an AI tool or a word cloud generator to quickly spot these keywords in the job posting. This saves time and significantly increases your chances of passing applicant tracking systems (ATS).
Step 2: Craft a Concise, Impactful Cover Letter Template
Stop writing unique cover letters from scratch. Develop a master template that includes sections for your introduction, your key skills and achievements, and a strong closing. For each application, simply customize the company name, job title, and one or two sentences that specifically highlight why you're a perfect fit for this particular role. Keep it brief – three paragraphs are usually enough.
Step 3: Set Application Limits (and Stick to Them!)
It's tempting to apply for everything, but this often leads to burnout. Decide on a realistic number of applications you'll submit each day or week (e.g., 3-5 quality applications per day). Once you hit that number, stop! Use the extra time to network, learn new skills, or simply recharge. This helps maintain your energy and focus, ensuring each application gets the attention it deserves.

Hello everyone, I will be re-entering the job market at the start of next year.
I work in the health insurance industry and my job is suddenly not looking so stable. I've been warned I might get a minor hour/pay reduction next year depending on how many clients we lose, best case is 10% and worst case is 25%. I know I'm 'safe' for this AEP - I'm the only receptionist for a family business with 2K clients. If they let me go they would not be able to function. But next AEP is not as guarenteed depending on how bad it gets this and next year, and I'm not waiting to find out. So after this AEP, I'm going to be looking for a new job.
I have not job hunted in about 2 years. How much different is it? I have solid experience in office work and that's mostly what my education was focused on (that and business). Last time I job hunted is when AI was just starting to make it's way into the job application field, and I loathe to find out how pervasive it is now.
