Reversing Burnout

‘It’s so hard for me to go from being a Northeast-coast, New Yorker/D.C./ Type-A personality, very driven, to say — actually say — working less is going to make me more productive.'

Respondents also talked about the need to be always on and digitally available; the crazy hours worked leading up to an event; and many days spent traveling.

But there are changes you can make, Stringer said.
