How do you detox at the end of the day? I would imagine as a lightning rod for everyone's feelings and bullshit, you guys have to have your own coping mechanisms in order to continue to do what you do.
Wondering if I can take some of those lessons/practices and apply them myself.
Also wondering if you see people and just roll your eyes. Like "I make 800k a year and my family is perfect and my car always starts and I have a beautiful home and just climbed Everest, but I'm sad." Wrestling with a bit of that myself lately, where I've walked the path and done everything you're supposed to, and have all the trappings of an upper-middle class life (I even had the white picket fence installed last Fall). But I'm fucking miserable. And I feel like bitching about that to anyone will just get me laughed out of the office.
