MAX PETE ON TECH BURNOUT, OFFLINE COMMUNITY, AND CREATIVE BALANCE
Max Pete and I had a nice talk about chasing tech dreams, the rise (or comeback?) of offline community, and how creatives can find balance between being seen online and actually living their lives.
Some solid quotes from Max during this talk:
“The tech dream is a nightmare… more people I talk to that are in this industry want to leave and do something else—like work at the coffee shop, work at Trader Joe’s—but don’t know how to do that or feel like they can’t.”
“As a community professional, we often put ourselves on the back burner… it leads to burnout. My next talk will be about how to take care of yourself while taking care of others.”
It’s okay to be forgotten and not know everything or everyone. You don’t need to be famous or popular or known by everyone to do good work.
