Navigating Social Burnout and Career Growth with Zaria Parvez

In honor of World Social Media Day 2026, Sprout is hosting a fireside conversation for the people who live and breathe social every day. This one is for the strategists, managers, and creatives who are chronically online, navigating constant algorithm changes and trying to grow their careers without burning out along the way.

For many social professionals, burnout has become normalized. But it isn’t just a personal challenge, it’s a business risk. When creativity suffers, boundaries blur, and experienced talent leaves the industry. Organizations and teams lose momentum, institutional knowledge, and impact.

Join us on Tuesday, June 30 at 10 a.m. CT / 4 p.m. BST for a live, 45-minute fireside chat featuring Zaria Parvez, head of social at DoorDash. She’ll share honest reflections on how high-performing social teams protect their energy, prove impact, and grow their careers.

You’ll walk away with insights on:

• How boundaries can support career growth
• The difference between healthy ambition and burnout
• Ways to protect creativity while still delivering meaningful results
