#169 Sabra Meretab: Hero Syndrome, Burnout & Why We Fear Losing Momentum in our Careers
Description
Sabra Meretab is a writer and former tech executive who spent her career building Fintech products and leading engineering teams in Silicon Valley.
She most recently served as Chief of Staff and Technical Advisor to the Head of Payments Engineering at Stripe, where she helped lead major architectural overhauls and shape strategy across a 1,000-person organization.
In 2024, she left tech to write full-time.
Her essays—on ambition, burnout, and the achievement complex—resonate with an audience of “burnt out overachievers” on her Substack newsletter.
Sabra is a Stanford alum and passionate about rethinking success in high-performing spaces.
