2 big projects briefed at the same time while you’re still on the 2nd round of feedback for another big project (though areas are more established). Plus working on a couple other smaller things.

Sounds like layoffs happened with no replacements brought in? Or projects coming from different teams who don't talk to each other? I'd raise a flag.

Maybe biased here, but why is there no PM or producer tracking workload/timelines for your team?

You should raise a flag. Something is likely going to get missed.

The older I get and the more I think about raising my own children, I keep thinking how can parents frame religious duties like fasting as something to look forward to.

How can one make Ramadan and Eid something to look forward to when holidays like Christmas seem to be purely joyous occasion that one doesn’t have to put in work for like fasting for Ramadan?
