Successful but Stuck: Early 40s Career Burnout Despite $1.5M Savings 😩💼

Hey everyone, I'm really struggling and need your advice. I'm 42, work from home in tech, and my partner and I have saved about $1.5M. On paper, we're crushing it - we can retire at 61 even if we lose our jobs tomorrow. 📈 But here's the thing: I feel completely drained and stuck in this boring middle phase. My job is so demanding that I barely use my gym membership, and weekends are just me recharging for Monday. We travel once or twice a year, but even then, work looms over everything. 😴 Without kids or close friends nearby, life feels monotonous despite our financial success. How do you push through this phase? I know I should feel grateful, but I'm just... empty. What strategies have worked for you during similar career plateaus? 💭 #JobCareer #CareerBurnout #WorkLifeBalance
