zebivllihc's journey

I'm currently evaluating a potential job opportunity in the healthcare field. I've been with my current agency for 8 years, but I've been feeling burnt out for quite some time. Recent events have prompted me to reassess my role and whether I want to continue here. I hold a master's degree and live in a very high cost of living area, earning just under $100k. As a single parent, I manage, but it can be a struggle financially. The new position I'm considering isn't close to home, which means I'd face about 45 minutes of traffic each way. The hours are typical office hours, and I worry about missing my son's baseball games due to work commitments. My current job offers great flexibility, allowing me to leave for events without much hassle. On the other hand, the new role offers a higher salary, potentially reaching around $100k, but it seems more sedentary and less stressful than what I'm doing now. I haven't interviewed yet, so this is all hypothetical. I'm curious to hear others' perspectives on whether I should pursue this opportunity or stay where I am.
