Hi, I’m Tara. I didn’t plan to burn out. I just kept saying yes, kept being useful, kept putting out fires until one day I realized the fire was me. I took a mental health leave when staying felt harder than quitting. Now I create the resources I wish I’d had when I was unraveling in work-appropriate slacks. This for the high performers quietly falling apart. The ones writing handoff notes through tears. The ones told to “just take a day” when their insides are begging for an exit strategy. I build tools for people too capable for their own good—leave guides, language scripts, and reminders that you’re not broken just because the system is. This isn’t self-help. It’s soft rebellion, built for recovery and rooted in truth.
