I hit a breaking point and took a 2-week mental health break between contracts. Best thing I’ve done for myself in years. Why is it so taboo to admit we’re human and need rest in this industry?

Unfortunately, it's not unique to our industry. People suffer burn out across industries and environments. I think it's fine to take a break and if anybody asks why, you don't owe them an answer either.

Why are town Hall meetings so impersonal? They are all about awards / the number of people hired. I know FCB health is large, but we never hear from people who aren’t Executives. Last town hall, when discussing inclusion efforts, there were no people of color represented and one of the 4 pillars of diversity was centered around our “reputation as an organization” (that really rubbed me the wrong way). At my last agency those conversations were always led by people of color from every level.
