Need to work for financial purposes

I am 43 and have had ABC in my bones since the age of 38. My 9-year-old daughter knows nothing about my ABC. Community and workmates know nothing about ABC. Family and friends do know about ABC. I’m currently on hormone treatment, which is keeping ABC under control.

I need to work for financial purposes – but part-time work, and not customer-facing. I work from home 1 day a week and in-office 2 days a week. I’m over-qualified for my role but didn't want deadlines associated with working at my capability. I work from home whenever COVID-19 is more prevalent or a risk in community.

My workplace is happy to give me flexibility, but it works both ways. I work whenever it is necessary to generate invoices for the business. By choice, my boss is happy to wait until my next workday.

I chose to work at a level where I could thrive. This would not be the case if I worked at my capability. Sure, the money would be fantastic, but I wouldn't be. The impact on my life outside of work would be too great.
