Our book is: The Burnout Workbook, by Drs. Amelia Nagoski and Emily Nagoski, the experts behind the New York Times bestselling book Burnout. This interactive workbook is designed to help you solve the cycle of overwhelm and exhaustion and empower yourself to create positive change. We all want to achieve wellness. But wellness is not a state of mind or a state of being—it's a state of action. It's the freedom to oscillate through all the cycles of being human: from effort to rest, sleeping to waking, autonomy to connection. Burnout, on the other hand, happens when we get stuck. The Burnout Workbook will help you notice when you get stuck and show you how to get unstuck. Inside it you'll find engaging questions, exercises to practice skills, visual guides, stories, and more! Feel better, minimize stress, manage your emotions, and live a more joyful life. Whether or not you've read Burnout, this workbook will help you learn what true wellness can look like in your life. You can find a worksheet from the book here. Our guest is: Dr. Amelia Nagoski. She holds a Doctorate of Musical Arts, and was an Associate Professor and Coordinator of Music at Western New England University. Her job is to run around waving her arms and making funny noises and generally doing whatever it takes to help singers get in touch with their internal experience. The co-author is: Dr. Emily Nagoski, who is the award-winning author of Come as You Are; and Come Together; and co-author of Burnout, and The Burnout Workbook. She earned an MS in counseling and a PhD in health behavior, both from Indiana University, with clinical and research training at the Kinsey Institute.

Send us a textIn this episode, I explore the concept of Human Giver Syndrome, a term coined by Emily Nagoski, PhD, and Amelia Nagoski, DMA, in their groundbreaking book Burnout: The Secret to Unlocking the Stress Cycle. This deeply ingrained societal expectation pressures women—especially women physicians—to be endlessly selfless, cheerful, and giving, often at the expense of their own well-being.Many of us have experienced pushback for being “too negative” or “not a teamplayer” when we've tried to meet our own needs. Today we unpack three specific ways Human Giver Syndrome shows up in the lives of women physicians: the silencing of your voice, the invisible labor of emotional support, and the relentless drive to be “perfectly” selfless. Finally, we envision what life could look like if you broke free from these expectations.In This Episode, You'll Learn:What Human Giver Syndrome is, as defined by Emily and Amelia Nagoski in Burnout.How this toxic expectation impacts women physicians and contributes to burnout.Three ways it shows up in your life—and how to recognize the patterns.Your plan for breaking free of Human Giver Syndrome; there's hope!Resources Mentioned:Unbound: Women Physicians Reclaiming Their LivesIf you're ready to break free from burnout and reclaim your life, check out Unbound: Women Physicians Reclaiming Their Lives.

While I'm not much of a history buff, I am fascinated by humans and human behavior - even ancient human behavior. So, when presented with the opportunity to examine historical models of leadership in my Masters of Organizational Leadership program, I was all in.  In studying leadership models across centuries and then within the decades of the last 120 years, there are undeniable patterns of leadership that are mostly about power and dominance and almost exclusively about the power and dominance of men.  In this episode, we will look at historical models of leadership which for centuries involved leaders who could easily be characterized as narcissists with their tyrannical, manipulative behavior in which they were commonly charming and gaslighting their followers, especially women, in equal proportion. It's pretty fascinating to see how much of this behavior endures in leadership models today.   When we look at these models of leadership, we can see how these depictions of leaders over time have continued to “inspire” models of leadership today. We have repeatedly created systems and structures of leadership that center leaders in roles to have power OVER their followers rather than power WITH their followers.   Understanding the patterns present in these systems can be useful in addressing, disrupting, and dismantling the sexist power structures that commonly exist in these systems, even as we claim to have created new systems that include equal rights for all regardless of gender.   This episode will open your eyes to how we are still very much settling for, if not embracing, aspects of historical models of leadership to the great detriment of women and people who carry marginalized identities. Yet, hope is not lost. There is still time to do better. And, we will.  Link mentioned: Book: Burnout by Emily Nagoski, PhD and Amelia Nagoski, DMA We love the sponsors that make this show possible!

John continues his conversation with Petra Velzeboer.

It's about the health of our mind. It's not mental illness; that's just a part of it.” “When we say mental health, we think crisis. But actually, it's about, ‘How do we perform at our best? How do we sustain success? How do we live our best lives?'” “Empathy and authenticity open the space for others to be open with you.” “Coaching, like any other relationship, is a two-way street. There has to be, ‘I think you're a good fit,' and you have to think, ‘I'm a good fit.' It has to go both ways. And if it doesn't, it isn't going to work.” “Selling is serving. Because if you're truly serving people, they never feel sold to. Ever.” “You'll learn through the movement forward, not through the strategizing. The opposite of a perfectionist is someone who moves forward, and as you're moving, your creative juices will flow.” “Growth is in my bones. It's in my blood. It's the only thing I know, and sometimes to my detriment, because sometimes people are like, let's just take a breath and appreciate where we are.” BOOKS MENTIONED: The Feminine Mystique by Betty Friedan (https://a.co/d/fDXv3tF) Burnout: The Secret to Unlocking the Stress Cycle by Emily Nagoski and Amelia Nagoski (https://a.co/d/6CbEe47) Belonging: Remembering Ourselves Home by Toko-Pa Turner (https://a.co/d/fE04Odh) The Power of Moments: Why Certain Experiences Have Extraordinary Impact by Chip Heath and Dan Heath (https://a.co/d/isiP1Yg) PODCASTS MENTIONED: The Diary Of A CEO Podcast (https://tinyurl.com/DiaryOfACEOPodcast) The Rich Roll podcast (https://tinyurl.com/TheRichRollPodcast) USEFUL RESOURCES: https://www.petravelzeboer.com https://www.linkedin.com/in/petra-velzeboer/ https://www.instagram.com/petra.velzeboer/ https://www.youtube.com/@petra.velzeboer “Begin with You: Invest in Your Mental Well-Being and Satisfaction at Work” (https://a.co/d/dbI2Nu8) “Digital Wellbeing: Recharge Your Focus and Reboot Your Life” (https://a.co/d/1EZarkm) CONNECT WITH JOHN Website - https://thejohnhulen.com  Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/johnhulen  Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/johnhulen  Twitter - https://www.twitter.com/johnhulen   LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnhulen     YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLX_NchE8lisC4NL2GciIWA  EPISODE CREDITS Intro and Outro music provided by Jeff Scheetz - https://jeffscheetz.com/

While I'm not much of a history buff, I am fascinated by humans and human behavior - even ancient human behavior. So, when presented with the opportunity to examine historical models of leadership in my Masters of Organizational Leadership program, I was all in. In studying leadership models across centuries and then within the decades of the last 120 years, there are undeniable patterns of leadership that are mostly about power and dominance and almost exclusively about the power and dominance of men. In this episode, we will look at historical models of leadership which for centuries involved leaders who could easily be characterized as narcissists with their tyrannical, manipulative behavior in which they were commonly charming and gaslighting their followers, especially women, in equal proportion. When we look at these models of leadership, we can see how these depictions of leaders over time have continued to “inspire” models of leadership today. We have repeatedly created systems and structures of leadership that center leaders in roles to have power OVER their followers rather than power WITH their followers. Understanding the patterns present in these systems can be useful in addressing, disrupting, and dismantling the sexist power structures that commonly exist in these systems, even as we claim to have created new systems that include equal rights for all regardless of gender. This episode will open your eyes to how we are still very much settling for components of historical models of leadership to the great detriment of women and people who carry marginalized identities. Yet, hope is not lost. There is still time to do better. And, we will.

In this episode, I'm thrilled to talk with Jemilly Castro, Vice President of Strategy at Remezcla. Jemilly opens up about the complexities of representing her cultural identity within the predominantly white corporate spaces of the advertising world. Her career journey beautifully illustrates the struggle and empowerment that come from embracing who you are in professional settings.Jemilly discusses the early challenges of her career, where she often had to mute or exaggerate aspects of herself to fit into the expected mold of a Latina professional. These experiences spurred profound personal growth, leading her to embrace her true self without conforming to external expectations. We also delve into how Jemilly incorporates gratitude into her daily life, balancing her successful career with personal hobbies that range from scuba diving to pottery, enriching her life beyond her professional identity. Join me as we explore how Jemilly has navigated the highs and lows of authenticity in her career and how she is embracing a new, more grounded chapter of her life. Resources:Learn more at jemilly.comFollow Guest on Instagram: @jemillyConnect with Jemilly on LinkedInPodcast: Brené with Emily and Amelia Nagoski on Burnout and How to Complete the Stress CycleCalm: 8 gratitude exercises to cultivate a more grateful mindsetPositive Psychology: The Neuroscience of Gratitude and Effects on the BrainConnect with me:InstagramLinkedInYouTubeselfatwork.comProduced by NOVA Media

When I first picked up the paintbrush, I had no idea how much art would one day impact my life. At first, painting was just a fun hobby, a way to add some me time in my life. I didn't know that it would SAVE my life.  The truth is, though: Art heals. Not just mentally, but physically, too. In this episode of the Honest Art Podcast, I want to talk about why.  Even if you've never even so much as touched paint or drawn a stick figure before, you're going to want to listen to this one!

I recently read a book by twin sisters, Emily Nagoski and Amelia Nagoski, called Burnout. The tagline is intriguing: The Secret To Unlocking The Stress Cycle. Everyone has both stress and stressors. Those won't ever go away as long as we are alive. What is important is not what comes at us, but how we deal with these stresses. According to the authors, we want to complete the stress cycle. There's no reason to have unneeded stress (and all the physiological changes it brings) for any longer than necessary. To break free, you need to "close the stress cycle." Here are some ways to complete your stress cycle: 1. Talk about it 2. Engage in Physical Activity 3. Make a Plan 4. Remember the Future 5.

Ten years ago I was in the thick of young motherhood, my husband was working constantly, and I just wanted to go for an uninterrupted run. When my carefully laid plans for that run nearly fell apart, I stormed out of my house yelling "I never have time for myself!" Unfortunately, I don't think I'm alone in feeling that way. In this episode I'm sharing research backed reasons why women are feeling more stressed than ever, nearing burnout with their overwhelming list of responsibilities, and something they can realistically do about it. I want to encourage each of you to implement a "Me Day," something I've prioritized yearly for the past several years. In this episode I break down the specifics of how to plan a day for yourself (spoiler: it can also be just a couple hours!) and ways to combat your long list of excuses.
