The Unexpected Gift of Career Envy

I’m pretty sure no one enjoys the feeling of envy, but let me tell you a secret; Envy (and career envy in particular) is a gift.

I’ve been sitting on this post for…I’m embarrassed to say how long. I’ve deleted, tweaked, inspected, hemmed and hawed over it. I don’t need a psychotherapist to tell me that I’m just dragging my feet. I KNOW I KNOW I KNOW.
