In this episode, we tackle the elephant in the room for so many developers: burnout. Whether you're just starting out or you've been coding for decades like us, the constant pressure to learn, ship, and stay relevant takes a serious toll. We share our own experiences with that Sunday evening dread and how setting boundaries at home became non-negotiable. Nate opens up about the challenges of remote work and why sometimes you need to physically walk around the block just to signal the start or end of your workday. We get real about the warning signs we've ignored and the lessons we've learned the hard way.
What makes developer burnout unique? For starters, there's the always-learning treadmill where a new framework or tool drops every single day. Then there's the invisible nature of our work (no one sees that incredible algorithm you spent weeks perfecting), the context switching between meetings and deep work, and that nagging feeling that our projects are never really done. We discuss how social media amplifies imposter syndrome, why learning to say no might be your most important skill, and how finding fulfillment outside of code isn't just nice to have, it's essential for long-term sustainability in this career.
