Elizabeth Collins on Recognizing and Recovering from Burnout
“Recovery is like I don't tell people to sit and breathe for five or or minutes. No, and especially, a lot of us are working from home now and there's no one supervising us, especially when you're an entrepreneur and when you're a solopreneur and you're trying to run your business and you're, you know, sneaking up on what's going on, what's hot, what's trendy, it can be so easy to fall in that trap of overwhelm.”
