Career Regret, Burnout & Why the “Safe” Path Isn’t Always Safe (Pt. 1)

Description

In Part 1, we spiraled about the “safe” path — student loans, pandemic pivots, and why your 5-year plan probably belongs in the recycling bin.

In Part 2, we’re asking: what now?

This week, we dive into:

  • How burnout actually shows up (hello, emotional flatline)
  • Why stability and survival mode aren’t the same thing
  • The messy truth about trying to restart — when you’re still exhausted
  • Financial “fun” like sunk costs, career switching fears, and the panic of starting over
  • That awkward in-between where healing and chaos coexist

We’re not handing out TED Talk advice — just real talk from two burnt-out sisters trying to make sense of it all.

If you’re in your “I don’t want my old life back, but I don’t know what the new one is” era… same.
