- 🧗🏼♀️Common challenges: overwhelm, travel fatigue, balancing diverse responsibilities, and learning to say “no”
- 🏢Why developer advocacy is often a “departmental orphan” and how that brings unique value
- 🏆The rewarding aspects: variety, constant learning, connecting with the developer community, playing to your strengths, and prioritizing high-impact work
