Show Notes

Have you ever felt burnt out? Like you’re so overwhelmed that you can barely hang on? 

Employee burnout is a global concern. According to a Deloitte survey, 77 percent of people say they have experienced burnout at their current job. 91 percent say that unmanageable stress or frustration impacts the quality of their work, and 83 percent say burnout can negatively impact personal relationships.

What about outside of work? For most people work doesn’t end when you leave the office or log out of your computer. Dinner has to be made, the house has to be cleaned, bills have to be paid, and the list goes on and on. 

Burnout is a popular term, but it often comes with a lot of questions like: 

  •  What does burnout feel like?
  • What’s the difference between burnout and being overwhelmed? 
  • How can you prevent burnout?
  • How do you know if you’re headed for burnout?
  • How can you recover
  • And why is it impacting so many people?

So in this episode, my guest,  and burnout expert, Dr. Hollie Strugon is going to answer all those questions.
