My Work Life Balance as an Investment Banker in NYC
me trying to juggle work, social life, sleep, hobbies, and mental health... sometimes work drains me so much I'm left with no motivation to do anything else, but it's important to learn how to take mental and physical breaks and rejuvenate! ⚠️SORRY THE AUDIO from 6:20-7:07 got removed because of copyright ;-; Here's the subtitles⚠️ "I do want to acknowledge though that as a first-year investment banker achieving that work-life balance can be very challenging there's still a lot to prove you're still building your reputation at the firm. for me as a first year analyst we were told to not make any plans for the weekdays you essentially have to be on call all the time and Fridays and Saturdays are the prime time for you to see your friends. so yeah I had about one to two hours to enjoy the sunset and then it was Back to Reality time for me to get back to work I got home and logged right back on and answered all the emails that I missed but I felt a lot more refreshed after the picnic break that I took most days you're not going to have the luxury of finding time for your friends but when that time does come you better take it so to all of the new first-year investment bankers or college students looking to go into banking remember if you ever feel overwhelmed or stressed you're not alone it's so easy to feel the Imposter syndrome in this industry and feel like no one else is going through it and everyone has their [ __ ] together but that's not true like trust me everyone is going through it and everyone is trust some people are just better at hiding it" stay connected with me!
