HIGHLIGHT QUOTES Know your priorities to avoid burnout - Erika: " It really comes down to understanding what's important to you. I think burnout, a lot of times, comes not necessarily from working too hard but from putting yourself in a situation where you're working really hard at things that aren't important to you. "And you don't find meaning in those things anymore. So I think getting really honest about what's important to you in letting the other things kind of go, prioritizing what's important, and letting those other things go." When you’ve exhausted your output, consider your inputs - Erika: "When you feel like you've pushed as hard as you can with output, think about input. Like what are you reading? What are you listening to? How are you getting new ideas so you're not just like banging your head against a brick wall again and again and again?"
