Burnout is real, and taking a career break can be a great way to reset. A good rule of thumb is to save at least 6–12 months’ worth of essential expenses (rent, bills, food, insurance, etc.), plus a little extra for unexpected costs. You can use emergency fund calculator to get a clearer idea of how much to set aside for unexpected occurrences while on break. If you’re not sure when you’ll return to work, having a cushion beyond that is even better. Also, consider health insurance and any ongoing financial commitments.
