#58 Empowering UXers: Identifying and Preventing Burnout in High-Demand Roles
This year, I’ll be speaking at the World Usability Congress alongside our brilliant Javier Andrés Bargas-Avila.
👉 Empowering UXers: Identifying and Preventing Burnout in High-Demand Roles
UX is a field of problem-solving, high stakeholder demands, rapid context-switching, and, let’s be honest—not always the recognition we deserve. It’s no surprise that burnout is so prevalent in our industry, especially when layoffs and organizational changes are so frequent.
But here’s the thing: We can take proactive steps to protect our energy, advocate for better workplace conditions, and build long-term resilience in our careers.
What you’ll learn:
🔹 How to spot burnout signals early—before they escalate
🔹 Actionable strategies to integrate self-care without compromising impact
🔹 How to advocate for a healthier UX culture inside your organization
It’s all happening under the Human UX / All About Life category, and I’d love for you to join us.
