Posts will continue to be sporadic, but I’m still here. Here’s an update of what’s been going on in my life: It’s been a significant time of transition for my family and I.

Burnout
(Unplanned post Part 2 – tools at the end) So now I’d like to talk about burnout. I’ll talk about how it developed, what it looks like, how it makes me feel and how I’m fighting it. How it developed It seems quite obvious, probably to you too if you read Part 1, but IContinue reading “Burnout”
