🎯 WHY THIS MATTERS NOW:
The tech industry is in crisis. Mass layoffs, AI pressure, expanded responsibilities with the same (or fewer) people, and constantly changing demands have created a perfect storm for burnout.

But here's what the research shows: Burnout is NOT a personal failing. It's a systemic problem that requires systemic solutions. These 5 strategies address the root causes, not just the symptoms.

⚡ QUICK START GUIDE:
1. Choose ONE strategy to start with this week
2. Set a specific time to implement it (schedule it!)
3. Track how you feel for 7 days
4. Add a second strategy once the first becomes habit
5. Build gradually, consistency beats intensity

🔄 THE INTEGRATION APPROACH:
You don't need to do all 5 perfectly. Start with what resonates:
Feeling overwhelmed? → Start with BOUNDARIES
Low energy? → Start with EXERCISE
Racing thoughts? → Start with MINDFULNESS
Feeling isolated? → Start with SOCIAL SUPPORT
Feeling powerless? → Start with AUTONOMY

⚠️ WHEN TO SEEK PROFESSIONAL HELP:
Physical symptoms persist (insomnia, headaches, frequent illness)
Unable to implement basic self-care
Thoughts of self-harm or severe depression
Significant impact on relationships or job performance
Using alcohol/substances to cope

💪 TAKE ACTION TODAY:
Don't wait until you're completely burned out to make changes. Research shows early intervention is most effective. Pick ONE strategy from this video and implement it THIS WEEK.

Your mental health matters. Your wellbeing matters. You deserve to thrive in your career, not just survive it.
