The late nights start to add up. You start feeling tired with greater frequency. You start questioning your abilities or feeling cynical about where you're working. What was once treatable with a nap or vacation becomes a weekly, then daily distraction. You're at your wits end.
Let's talk about occupational burnout and how to (get) help. Let's have a safe space where we can talk openly about the 90-hour weeks, the anxiety, and the kind of discernment that makes you want to say, "I am not going back there." Let's talk about how AI might help you--as an individual, as a team lead--tend to your needs, those of your organization, or both, so that you can return to doing joyful work that gets you out of bed in the morning. We will share experiences, experiments, and recommendations.
