We all know marketing can be fast-paced and high pressure—but when does being “always on” become too much? If you’ve ever felt emotionally drained, creatively stuck, or like you’re running on empty, you’re not alone. Burnout is real, and it’s impacting marketers at every level.
Join us for the Ask the Marketer series—a new kind of Q&A and networking session designed for 2025. These sessions are a space to connect with other marketers, get honest about industry challenges, and learn from experts who’ve been there, too.
In this session, we’re joined by Rita Cidre, a marketing leader and mental health advocate, who’s passionate about building sustainable careers in marketing. Rita will share her personal experiences with burnout, the warning signs she ignored, and the steps she took to recover—and thrive.
Rita is the Head of Academy at Semrush. She works at the intersection of marketing and education. She spent 15+ years working as a marketing leader for brands such as Time, NPR, Zillow and Qualtrics. After she became a mom, she started teaching marketing and never looked back. Rita’s marketing courses are taught across hundreds of universities around the globe, from NYU, to Harvard and WU in Vienna, where she resides with her family. She currently leads the Academy team at Semrush. With a mission of making marketing accessible to all, Semrush Academy courses reach hundreds of thousands of students every year.
This session is all about real talk, practical tools, and making space for wellbeing in your marketing career. Whether you’re feeling the pressure or supporting a team that is, you’ll walk away with clarity and strategies you can actually use.
