Office Hours – States of Burnout with Jenny Truong
Episode description
Jenny Truong is head of operations and developer relations at Stately, and recently gave a talk titled “The Unexpected States of Burnout” at React Miami, which you can watch here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tcN8grYAEuQ.
It’s easy to accidentally transition from being productive to burning out. We tend to think in the moment in life - I’m happy, I’m excited, I'm tired, I'm hungry, I'm burnt out. We sometimes fail to think about the transitions between the states — how did I become tired, burnt out, and how do I transition to a better state?
Drawing on Jenny’s experience working at a highly-productive startup, join us as Carl Vitullo talks with her about how burnout can manifest, how it can impact our lives in unexpected ways, and how we can manage the energy we give work to thrive without burning out.
