Worst how? Career? Health? All of it all at once?

All at once tbh. Fire drills for no reason. Consistently having to defend myself, my work, to my manager & client. Never feeling like it’s enough, all while going through physical and mental health crisis.

Me too!! I have to defend my work because other people (not strategist) think they can nail it, all the while having to do new things, feeling like it's never enough and if I want to keep up I have to work late and some weekends...
