Excited to be able to share my talk on how I've been dealing with fatigue! It's by far my most personal talk ever 🫣 but I really wanted to share my experience in the hopes that it may help some others too 💚

I think this is something we should be talking about more so lmk if you relate 🫶

When your creative spark is dull, you may start doing more to find it. But even with work life balance, being active, and socializing with community, burnout can still hit.

What a start! Day 1 at #GGJVancouver2026 was a total blast of creativity!! The energy in the room was so focused yesterday. From the moment the theme was revealed, we saw notebooks filling up, teams bonding over dinner from the food trucks, and the first lines of code being written.

- Other Lots: While there are parkades to the east, we can't guarantee they are public on the weekend. Sticking to the underground is your safest and closest bet! 🅿️

If you have any trouble accessing the parking, please contact John, and he’ll get you sorted!

🚗 Arriving by Car: If you’re driving in with your gear, we have some great news! We’ve coordinated with the facility team to make parking easy:

- Underground Parking: We recommend using the Douglas College underground parkade. (It’s a $5.50 daily maximum)

🚆 Arriving by SkyTrain: It’s a quick and easy walk (plus a tiny bit of hill for a pre-jam workout! 🏃‍♂️). Take the Expo line SkyTrain to New Westminster Station and follow the walking path shown in our first graphic.
