Both, personal as I have a child now and I want to spent more time with her and be more present. On the other hand, I'm rethinking my career choices as I'm not sure that my actions as a CTO are as impactful as I would like to be. When I was a developer or even as EM my actions seemed more relevant.

Probably try changing company, not the role? It depends, per my experience being TL is not harder than being a dev, probably CTO is more loaded, just try a smaller company then, so you have less people/tasks under your management.
