Dec 16-17th: Dev Holidays Guide ⛄️

This content originally appeared on DEV Community and was authored by Helen Griffin

I found myself a little overwhelmed finishing my last project while getting ready for the holidays. I got burnout trying to conduct a burnout survey. 🙄

It wasn't just the survey, but months of stress with my startup, career options, caregiving duties, & relearning JS & React.

So I wrote down some advice & tactics to help me stop being anxious while I figure stuff out.

Broke into the tech industry as a front-end developer then became a startup founder. Now I help developers avoid burnout. On the weekends, I'm learning React while leveling up on JS & Python.
