Gentlemen, pardon me if this is not the right platform. Based on all your experience and coming from different walks of life, I need some advise. It has been a very tough year, my wife was diagnosed with cancer, went through surgery and chemo, now a waiting game to March until the next scan. Work has become toxic and just in general, I lost my purpose, no longer interested in the things I used to love, small chores feels like climbing Mount Everest. I have become withdrawn, and prefer silence and solitude, of course this has a negative affect on my marriage, friendships and have become depressed. Feels like just another day, dragging myself out of bed, giving myself a pep talk just to face the day. Have some meds, but not working, seeing someone just causes more negative questions How do I shake this off and be who I really am? Life is not that bad, but for some reason this dark cloud is smothering me. If this topic is not allowed on this platform, I apologize, and admin may remove it. Any suggestions or input will appreciated.

As I am busy getting my grooming and style in shape, I need to know what the thoughts are on this platform in terms of beards, working in a corporate enviroment. Here are two pics if me, one with a short beard and one with a longer beard (currently even longer than the 2nd pic - have to act as Chrsitmas Father in a few days and there after not sure whether to shorten or shave off. Grooming is all about the bears products, but not sure how the business world view beards? Have had a beard from goattee to full beard for the past 30 years. Any advice or input will be greatly appreciated.

I’m starting sales and I’m working on building my confidence from the ground up. Instead of pretending I’ve already got it all figured out, I want to learn from people who’ve been there. That’s why I’m asking this question — to understand what actually makes you feel confident, and maybe pick up something I can use on my own journey.

OK, so by introducing yourself you are guaranteed to get to level 2 - it's really that easy and I LOVE learning more about the cool people in this group. Feel free to share where you're from, why you're here, what you do for a living, and what you like about style. Are you a watch guy, suit guy, fragrance guy, or maybe just getting started? Have fun here!
