We've been living and working in a pandemic for more than a year. And a lot of people are feeling burnout creeping up on them. Whether it's anxiety, depression, motivation or focus problems -- most people have probably experienced these things to one extent or another, but after a year of separation, and work/life balance being messed up and dealing with incredible loss the whole time... this feels different.
