it's either I distance to protect myself or I distance to protect others from me. I know when my peace is at risk and I also know when I'm being toxic already. in both situations, the best approach for me is to disconnect until things get calm.
I actually don't want to climb any corporate ladders. I don't care about job titles. I don't need accolades.
I just want to have income to fund my lifestyle, not be depressed, help other people, and be around good humans.
