Burnout: Confessions of a Corporate Design Athlete

In this talk, we will explore the cyclical nature of burnout, backed by science and personal stories, putting forth various methods to design our own best conditions and our own "normal".
Research, anecdotes, and advice included. Therapy sold separately
