Anyone in their late 30s/40s in big four, especially in consulting? How are you managing work pressure, stress and politics without adversely impacting physical and mental health?

Are you planning to switch to a more stable profile/organization instead of having to work in a new project every 3-6 months? Or maybe even retire early?
