Am I bored or burned out? Should I take a break? Should I change jobs? Should I have kids? I can do anything...so what should I do???

Hey, I'm Susan, the creator of better work.
Those deceivingly simple questions (above) haunted me for most of my adult life. I've read over 77 personal development books, listened to the BrenΓ© Brown podcasts, and completed dozens of personality quizzes.
They don't have the answers.
Even when I [finally] made a decision, I was haunted by the "What if?" of everything that could go wrong. Sleeping pills were no match against my worst-first-thinking.
I had to change the way I think to change my reality.
I went from someone who planned out her entire career when she was ten years old to leaving it behind after checking off all the boxes. For the next ten years, I pivoted into five different roles, lived in four different cities, and launched three businesses.
I'm not a risk-taker. I'm not braver than you. I learned how to trust myself more.
Despite the constant changes and disruptions, I'm more at peace and more dangerous than ever.
That's why I started the better work newsletter. To help smart, successful, strategic thinkers like yourself transform the way you think so you can make more confident career moves.
Even if you're an overthinker. Even if you're a perfectionist.
BTW neither of those are bad things! You just need someone in your corner who understands how your beautiful brain works.
