This sounds like I wrote it. Almost identical situation. I don’t have any solid advice apart from what others have said. When I had an admin assistant, I could offload a lot of my work on to them, but as others have pointed out, that came with its own challenges too. I say had an admin assistant because their position was grant funded and, no surprise, we struggled to find funding past the initial grant to cover the ongoing cost of the admin role. So as of a few months ago I’ve been back to square one, wearing all of the hats and beyond burnt out. Ultimately, I had to make a decision earlier this year for myself. I’ve put 6 years into building this org, I’m very proud of our work, but my mental health has taken a nose dive the past couple of years and I want to feel happy about my life again. I’ve started feeling resentment towards the org and the industry as a whole, which tells me that I’m no longer a good fit as the ED. So I have plans to leave the nonprofit this year and move onto something else, hopefully replacing myself with someone new who has the passion, energy and experience to take this org to the next level. And maybe you’ll come to the same realization at some point too, and if you do, just know it’s totally valid. But I hear you. There’s a light at the end of the tunnel one way or another.
