Jean grew up in the Philippines and built a career writing for tech companies and agencies — the kind of work that looks glamorous from the outside until burnout hits hard. When her body and mind finally said enough, she stepped back and rebuilt from scratch. Now she writes about performance and recovery with the authority of someone who's been forced to learn both the hard way. Her dogs are non-negotiable parts of her recovery routine.
