I took a counter-offer in 2022 and regretted it within 8 months. The extra 1.4k felt good on payday, but the trust was gone on both sides. M…
We survived the grind by being ruthless about protecting one non-negotiable slot a week, for us it was Sunday brunch and a walk, phones in t…
I hit real burnout two years ago, the dread-every-morning kind. What genuinely helped, in order: 1) I saw a GP first, they can assess if it'…
