I've been at my company since 2016, and am now a design consultant - speaking to customers directly and creating custom artwork and designs for them.

I'm now severely burnt out (most of my team is) and not sure which way to go, or how to grow. Any tips/advice?

Thanks!

What should I ask for when I graduate? Living in Southern Pennsylvania.
