The question in our industry is not if you’ll experience burnout but when. To tell you the truth, you’re probably already experiencing it.

It took me a few years outside of training to recognize the symptoms of burnout a little too late — I had hit rock bottom. But I have bounced back with a determination to help you recognize those symptoms sooner than I had and to tackle burnout in order to live your best life, personally and professionally.

Take this quiz to test where you land on the burnout scale and find ways to build boundaries in your personal and professional life.
