Many years ago, but I've done it.

Yes. Took 1yr off work to travel and hike, including through-hiking the AT. But I wouldn't call it sabbatical, because I just quit work and then had to find another job.

I hung out this weekend with a work friend of mine. We’re both junior, but I’ve been on FMLA due to an unexpected illness so have been away for a bit. I know that I screwed up on some files before I was diagnosed which I feel awful about and have been trying to rectify (unpaid), but she spent a lot of time cataloguing the ways in which I messed up. It was supposed to be a nice weekend for once and I’m feeling more beat down than ever 😕 just not sure how to get the motivation/nerve to go back!

Keep growing and betting on yourself, it will pay off. Make the right connections and people will see your value.
