Summary

You're stressed, running on fumes, depressed, anxious, overwhelmed, and feeling stale and stuck. Sound familiar? It's what happens when you work at an unsustainable pace and finally come up for air. And that's the state I've been fighting through over the past three months. So, what changed? How did I overcome burnout? A lot of patience and I finally stopped fighting it and I gave myself permission to be where I was. So, let's talk about that destructive boogeyman that haunts my dreams, burnout.
