Burnout: What I experienced so you don't have to | Devex

Burnout: What I experienced so you don't have to | Devex: "Those of us working in development and global health almost always speak about burnout as it relates to others — nurses in rural clinics and civil servants — instead of talking about it as it relates ourselves. Additionally, we are surrounded by a culture of stress and burnout, where those who push themselves the hardest are often the ones acknowledged for their passion, grit and perseverance.

This makes it hard to draw the line between what is normal versus not in terms of what sacrifices we should make in the name of doing good."
