I know this sounds obvious, but passion and dedication don't make you immune to burnout.

Those characteristics can actually be risk factors! Because passionate and dedicated people will go that extra mile, and do "just one more thing", over and over and over and...

You get my point.

So please, my passionate and dedicated friend, take a break from all the good work you do every now and then, will you?

From work. From personal development. From professional pursuits. Even from job searching.

Starting tomorrow, I’m off on my yearly break from calendars and calls 🌴

But if now isn't your moment for rest, and you need some support while I'm away, here are some options:

✨ Self-study and free resources are always available – including the Interviewing Mini-Course, which is probably the best $49 investment you can make if an interview is on your horizon. It’s packed with advice worth at least two hours of my advisory time.

✨ The Application Review - Essentials will remain mostly available. This service gives you expert feedback on up to 3 documents, with track changes and an explanatory screencast delivered in just 2 business days. If the page lets you book it, it’s available. If not, check back in a day or two.

I'll be back before you know it.

In the meantime, take care of yourself!
