[Ep. 42] Why I felt relief after being laid off w/ Amanda Handy


Listen Later

Amanda is one of the most infectiously vivacious co-workers I've had the privilege of working with. So I was surprised when she shared her experience of burning out while working in tech. Having gone through several burnouts myself - in an odd way, it was heartening to commiserate and empathize. Plus the advantage of getting inspired by Amanda's resilience and her proactive approach to integrating the lessons learned into her life and future career endeavors.

Last note - if anyone from Bumble BFF sees this post, please send Amanda and her gang some love. She had me converted at "making best friends as an adult."
