Hi all, I'm kicking off a self-funded, part time search and I was hoping for some guidance from fellow searchers.
I've seen a lot of resources out there that warn against part time searching, but I wanted to hear from real people who did it to learn from your experience on how you managed to pull it off!
Keeping it general because I'm open to any and all advice, and also open to connecting with folks in the space. Thanks!
