How do you even get real work life balance? Before I thought being a workaholic was a good thing. Just keep busy and you don’t have to deal with stuff... but it wrecked me. Fully burned out and idk what to do.. Took me ages to figure out I needed real breaks, to hand stuff over, and just remember I’ve got a life outside work 😅 Anyone else going through it and what helped?

Was chatting with a friend abt Anya Hindmarch's "If in doubt, wash your hair" - got us talking about how we know we need a break when we don't even have time for a basic hair wash! The tricky thing abt burnout is ppl don't see it coming until they're stuck in it. Now I schedule breaks like meetings - non-negotiable calendar time. Even 15min can reset everything... we can't pour from empty cups :') Small consistent breaks help us show up as our best selves at work AND home 💙
