1. How to navigate burnout? (I have worked in IT for 20 years) 2. My effectiveness has significantly reduced due to this imbalance in life due to work related stresses. Hence, thinking about taking a career break for 6 months for recovering from the burnout but worried about continuity in resume. Any guidance on career break would be very beneficial. I do have savings and spouse support in-spite of the loss of income. Thank you so much for reading this and providing guidance. I am glad I stumbled upon PowerToFly.com!
