    This post is part of The Second Leap: a series about choosing uncertainty on purpose, twice. In 2015 we quit our jobs in advertising and built a life that didn’t look like many others’. Now, nearly 12 years later, we’re doing it again – bigger leap, more at stake, a 3-year-old in tow. You can start from the beginning here or keep reading below. Nobody really warned us about this one. We'd thought about the money, we'd thought about the logistics, and we'd thought (in a vague and optimistic way) about the adventure. What we hadn't thought about at all was what happens to your sense of self when you remove the thing that's been answering the question "so, what do you do?" for the last decade. I was...

    Once upon a time, burnout looked like collapse. Tears in a bathroom stall, a breakdown in the boardroom. It was visible, dramatic, and undeniable. But that’s not what it looks like anymore. Today, burnout often hides behind a smile. It looks like high performance, polite replies and “just a busy season.” It sounds like “I’m fine,” and it feels like…nothing.

Because when your job relies on original thinking, emotional connection, and brand energy, burnout doesn’t just affect morale. It affects the work.
