Let’s Talk About Burnout (blog.usejournal.com)

This is a poignant account, and I'm very happy she wrote it. Perhaps it's a penchant for hyperbole, but if anything, I'm struck by how much worse this could have been. From the article:

  I walked away without fanfare, quietly slipping into a 
  new professional life that made me feel supremely 
  lucky, like I’d fallen hard but landed on a soft 
  cushion that I was surprised to find beneath me.

In a similar situation, "most people" would't have been able to pay of $250k of debt in 2.5 years. Which only makes her advice more important. So take care of yourself.
