So, I can just ask and risk suffering rejection. But there is part of me that is filled with fear that this is the wrong move for D10. I am a little scared that maybe this job will cause me to not be as present or if I mess it up somehow, then I have a problem. I feel selfish moving out of a cushy role with good income.
Ginger,
All you have to do is talk to your manager. If you don't like what you hear from her, then no harm, no foul. Stop overthinking it and just go have the conversation with your manager (or ex-manager).
