Podcasts about Burnout

Four years ago, this pace of life would have flatlined me. Today I've doubled my coaching team since the start of the year, maintained the leanest and healthiest physique I've had in over five years, gotten married, healed a partial meniscus tear, and I'm handling more stress than ever. Not because I have less on my plate, but because I've fundamentally changed how I operate at a physical, mental/emotional, and relational level.   In this episode I'm walking through the real, unglamorous shifts that got me here: the habit and routine changes (spending way less time in a deficit, training less but harder, radically simplifying my routines, learning the difference between willpower and real systems), the relationship shifts (my marriage, my faith, and getting brutally honest about which friendships were actually serving me), and the mental and emotional work that made all of it sustainable: somatic tools, learning to stop romanticizing my struggles, and building real emotional maturity instead of just muscling through.   This one's long and it's dense, because this is genuinely the accumulation of years of work, not a quick fix. If you've been wondering what it actually takes to build a life and a body you're proud of without burning it all down again, this is the closest I can get to showing my work.   — Fitness, health, and holistic wellness for $22/month Interested in a luxury 1:1 online health coaching experience?

When was the last time you actually stopped and asked yourself how you're really doing? Not the autopilot answer you give people at the gym or in a group text. The real one. That's exactly where I took a room full of guys during a recent workshop, and it cracked something open for every single person in there, myself included. In this episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast, I'm sharing the Montana Mastermind Exclusive Session Part 1, where I walk through the 10 alignments I use to avoid burnout and build what I call blissful balance. This isn't some complicated system. It's not rocket science, and you don't need a PhD to get it. But it's profound because of how simple it is, and I've watched it transform thousands of lives, including my own back when I was running myself into the ground as an entrepreneur. Here's the big shift. Most of us think burnout is about working too much. It's not. Burnout happens when a handful of areas in your life go completely unattended while you pour everything into one or two. You can be crushing it in your career and still be running on empty because your health, your relationships, or your spirit are getting ignored. The fix isn't working less. It's getting honest about where you actually stand, then making small, intentional moves in the areas that need it. Here's what stood out most from this session. Give yourself an honest score, not a nostalgic one. I ask people to rate themselves one to five in each alignment based on the last 30 days only. Not high school. Not "the person I used to be." Just now. That single shift in perspective is what makes the exercise actually useful instead of a feel good exercise in self deception. Selfless service only counts when there's no string attached. Giving to your kids or your best friend feels good, but it lives in a different category. Real selfless service is time, insight, or money given to someone with zero personal connection and zero expectation of return. I use an app called Kiva to fund micro loans for entrepreneurs in developing countries, and I've never once pulled my money back out. I just keep reinvesting it into someone else's shot. Your environment might be sabotaging your health more than your diet. We talk a lot about food and workouts, but EMFs, mold, and tainted water are quietly wrecking people's health and nobody's checking for it. I know guys who look absolutely jacked on the outside and are falling apart on the inside because their house is full of black mold. You cannot out exercise a bad environment. It just doesn't work that way. Fifty five percent of communication is nonverbal, and twenty five percent is tone. That means only a small fraction of what you're actually saying comes from your words. In my marriage, I use something I call the love calendar. Every night my wife and I score the day one to ten, average it, and track it over the month. It sounds simple because it is, but it keeps us honest instead of letting resentment quietly pile up. Your morning is sacred territory, and most people give it away for free. Right when you wake up, your brain is still in a theta state, more connected and more open than at almost any other point in your day. The second you grab your phone, that's gone. I protect thirty minutes in the morning and thirty minutes before bed as phone free time, and it has changed how I show up for literally everything else. None of this is about being perfect. It's about knowing where you stand and choosing, on purpose, to close the gap. That's the whole game. When I actually run through these ten alignments consistently, my life gets fuller, my relationships get deeper, and honestly I just feel like myself again. That's what happy hustling actually means. Not hustling harder. Hustling with intention. If any part of this hit home, I'd love for you to listen to the full episode.

In this episode of Ask George, Dr. George Hariri addresses a critical issue facing the industry: selling your practice early simply because you are tired. While the administrative and HR burdens of modern dental practice ownership drive many doctors to sell to DSOs, doing so prematurely cuts off your greatest wealth-building vehicle. George explains that burnout is not just a qualitative issue—it is a massive quantitative financial threat because the highest return on your investment in dental school comes from operating your cash-flowing practice for the longest possible time.If you are feeling overwhelmed in your current stage of dental practice ownership, you haven't failed—you simply haven't "nailed" the systems required for that level of success yet. By proactively identifying and solving the specific bottlenecks causing your exhaustion, you can secure your equity, reclaim your time, and maximize your income.Here is your guide to extending your career and maximizing the financial return of dental practice ownership:Audit Your Exhaustion: Track exactly what drains your energy over a two-week period, whether it is a specific type of demanding patient, a stressful clinical procedure like surgical extractions, or daily HR headaches.Delegate HR Burdens: If managing staff causes you severe stress, hire an office manager to handle schedule requests and team accountability. The cost of their salary is a small price to pay for the longevity it brings to your career.Design a Sustainable Schedule: Restructure your clinical days to prioritize rest, such as working an alternating three-day week that allows for a six-day weekend every two weeks without dropping your operational hours.Find Outside Outlets: Once your practice stabilizes and no longer needs aggressive growth, channel your entrepreneurial ambition into hobbies or fitness rather than constantly disrupting your business.Protect the Cash Cow: While outside investments like real estate are important, never fund them so aggressively that it ruins your personal lifestyle and causes you to burn out of dentistry.Ready to take the next step in your dental practice journey?

You don't have a burnout problem. You have a permission problem. You've been giving yourself permission to feel exhausted, but not permission to find out why. George has taken vacations that didn't fix it. Hired people to take things off his plate and still felt it. And told himself for years that rest would reset him. It didn't. Because rest doesn't fix misalignment. It just gives you a quieter room to spiral in. This is the implementation guide for the two Lacey Newman episodes, distilled into a three-part system you can run this week. Burnout as information. The three lies keeping you from systematizing. And the fear cost audit that Lacey shared that requires nothing but a pen, a piece of paper, and more honesty than most of us are used to. What You'll Learn In This Episode: The one diagnostic question that separates burnout from tired Why burning it all down is almost never the actual prescription The one contained shift that changes everything, without demolishing your business The three lies keeping you from documenting and delegating Why you're not too complex to replace, you're too undocumented to replace Lacey Newman's fear cost audit: pen, paper, and naming what it would actually cost you Why 80% of the change is just acknowledging the fear is there Why "ready" is a lie and what you do instead Key Takeaways: ✔️Burnout is information. Not a death sentence. Not a reason to blow everything up. A signal pointing at misalignment. Get curious with it. ✔️The test: if you go on vacation and come back dreading the return before you even leave, that's not tired. That's a symptom that needs a shift, not a rest. ✔️Make one contained, reversible shift. Not a rebuild. One client stopped working Fridays. Another stopped taking buyers. Both went from wanting to quit to loving their business again. ✔️The three lies: it's too complex to explain; I create a custom experience for every client; what I do is magic and no one else can do it. All three feel true. All three are dangerous. ✔️You're not too complex to replace. You're too undocumented to replace. Those are two very different problems. ✔️Document the process first. Voice memo, screen recording, having someone observe you. Then AI or a human runs it without you in the room. That's how you find out where the magic actually lives. ✔️The fear cost audit: write the goal, then write what getting it would actually cost you. Name every fear. Lacey said 80% of the change is just acknowledgment, the naming does most of the work. ✔️Ready is a lie. You don't work through fear by sitting with it. You work through it by moving through it. Take the hit. Notice you're still standing. Timestamps & Highlights:[00:00] — You don't have a burnout problem. You have a permission problem.

Ministry burnout often begins when church production and worship leaders neglect the very things their leadership depends on.

We share practical ways to prepare for busy church calendars, build sustainable habits, ask for help, and serve with excellence without sacrificing what matters most.

Working more hours is not always the answer.Sometimes, exhaustion is a sign that the business is relying on the wrong person for the wrong work.In this episode of The Level Up Podcast, Paul Alex breaks down why burnout often points to broken leverage—and how delegation, automation, and better systems can help founders reclaim their time and focus.If the CEO is constantly buried in low-value tasks, the company eventually pays the price.Your highest-value work should be centered on decisions, strategy, and opportunities that move the business forward.In this episode, you'll learn:• Why extreme fatigue can signal a lack of leverage• How low-value tasks can steal time from higher-level CEO decisions• Why delegation and automation can multiply your output• How better systems create more mental bandwidth for growthThe truth is simple:You cannot scale by personally carrying every task.Audit where your time is going.Delegate what someone else can handle.Automate what software can repeat.Protect your attention for the decisions only you can make.The goal is not to work the most hours.The goal is to build an operation where every hour produces more value.Fix the math.Build the leverage.Create the freedom.Your Network is your NETWORTH!Make sure to add me on all SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS:Instagram: https://jo.my/paulalex2024Facebook: https://jo.my/fbpaulalex2024YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGhDAD1JyGGzSQUPD9lc9HQLinkedIn: https://jo.my/inpaulalex2024Looking for a secondary source of income or want to become an entrepreneur?

Burnout Before Licensure: Why Prelicensed Therapist Exhaustion Is a Supervision Problem, Not a Time Management Problem A continuing education episode on prelicensed therapist burnout, clinical supervision, and why early career exhaustion is a systemic problem rather than a time management one. Curt Widhalm, LMFT, and Katie Vernoy, LMFT examine why prelicensed clinicians are entering the mental health workforce already depleted. Client acuity climbed during the pandemic and has not come back down, the least experienced clinicians are frequently assigned the most complex cases, and roughly a third of the work week goes to compliance, tracking, and billing. Add student loan debt, low paid and unpaid associate and practicum roles, and severe evaluation anxiety, and burnout arrives long before licensure. This is not a self-care episode, and Curt and Katie say so at the top: no toxic positivity, no bubble bath prescriptions. They treat prelicensee burnout as a systemic and relational problem, then look at clinical supervision as the place it can realistically be buffered. That includes the supervisor seat, where new supervisors often receive no training in how to supervise, absorb vicarious trauma from every caseload they oversee, and watch as much as 90 percent of the supervision hour get swallowed by administrative work. The back half of the episode is practical. Supervisees get transition rituals, boundary architecture, and a realistic look at managing up. Supervisors get better check-in questions, guidance on modeling vulnerability, and structural adjustments they can make in the next supervision hour. This is a continuing education podcourse. One unit of CE is available through the Modern Therapist Learning Community at moderntherapistcommunity.com. In this episode, we discuss: * Why prelicensed clinicians burn out at higher rates than their licensed colleagues * How burnout presents differently before licensure, as exhaustion, brain fog, and vicarious trauma rather than cynicism * Why treating early career exhaustion as a rite of passage is a supervisory failure * What supervisors are carrying that supervisees rarely see * Concrete strategies supervisees can use without waiting for a supervisor to change * How supervisors can build restorative space into the structure of supervision * Why note lag is a signal of clinical capacity rather than poor organization Timestamps: 00:54 - Why prelicensees arrive already exhausted 02:41 - CE objectives and the systemic frame 09:40 - The data on prelicensed burnout rates 14:26 - The competency trap 17:36 - How burnout looks different before licensure 22:32 - The supervision paradox and the 90 percent problem 29:06 - Strategies for supervisees 37:37 - Strategies for supervisors 50:31 - Case vignette: note lag as a capacity signal 1:04:58 - Key takeaways and call to action Full show notes, references, and CE information: mtsgpodcast.com Join the Modern Therapist Community Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/mtsgpodcast Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/therapyreimagined Modern Therapist's Survival Guide Creative Credits Voice Over by DW McCann: https://www.facebook.com/McCannDW/ Music by Crystal Grooms Mangano: https://groomsymusic.com/

The One Line That Changes Everything Sometimes the door didn't close on you. It closed for you. If you're a high-achiever who's been taught that every "no" is just a "not yet" you can grind your way past, this episode is your permission slip to do something your ambition has never allowed: stay excluded. Because the burnout you're carrying? It's rarely the workload. It's the chasing, the emotional overtime you're logging trying to earn your way back into a room God already walked you out of. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why burnout is almost never about doing too much — and what's actually draining you The difference between being rejected and being removed (and why it matters) 4 real-life examples of rejection being protection in disguise What Scripture says about closed doors, betrayal, and repositioning The one question that turns exclusion into freedom instead of exhaustion Rejection Isn't the End of Your Story: It's the Repositioning Here's the pattern most high-performers miss: rejection is often protection wearing a mask you don't recognize yet. You keep knocking. You keep over-explaining. You keep proving yourself to people who already decided. And you call it perseverance, but your body is calling it burnout. The truth is, when you keep trying to re-enter rooms you were excluded from, you don't just waste energy. You override the very protection that exclusion was built to give you. "You weren't rejected. You were removed. And there's a difference, because man looks at the door, but God looks at what's on the other side of it." Ready to Pull the Root Out? If this episode named something you've been living, the exhaustion of trying to break back into a room God locked for your good, don't sit with that revelation alone. That's exactly the work we do inside the Premium Strategy Hour. One hour, just you and me. We go underneath the burnout, find the belief that keeps you chasing closed doors, and pull it out by the root. I only open a handful of these each month. When they're gone, they're gone, so don't wait for the next season of exhaustion to make the decision for you. Book Your Premium Strategy Hour - HERE Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

What happens when the business you built no longer feels like the business you want to run?In this Sacred Business Calibration, Kelle Sparta coaches a spiritual entrepreneur through the tension between burnout recovery, business positioning, pricing, target markets, and the pressure to keep doing what once worked—even when it no longer feels aligned.The conversation explores a challenge many experienced practitioners eventually face: your business may still function on paper, but internally, you've outgrown it.Kelle explains why selling a $997 group program requires a very different message than selling a $5,000 private engagement, why you need one primary offer and one primary market, and why trying to speak to everyone at once weakens your positioning.They also discuss the difference between following trends and leading from alignment, the dangers of applying generic entrepreneurial advice to spiritual businesses, and how burnout can become a signal that your business model, audience, or message needs to evolve.Kelle shares her own experience of reaching the point where she had said everything she wanted to say to the seeker market, losing momentum, and eventually restructuring her work around professional spiritual practitioners. Instead of discarding years of content, she reorganized existing material, added new elements, and created a business model that restored her energy and enthusiasm.For coaches, healers, facilitators, and spiritual entrepreneurs who feel trapped by a business they've outgrown, this episode offers a practical framework for recognizing misalignment and making a strategic pivot without throwing away everything you've already built.What You'll LearnWhy a $997 offer and a $5,000 offer require different positioningHow to choose a primary offer and target marketWhy trying to sell multiple offers simultaneously can dilute your messageThe “one thing, one market, one lead magnet, one platform” business principleWhy burnout can cause business momentum to declineHow generic entrepreneurial advice can misalign spiritual businessesThe difference between following trends and evolving with your own alignmentWhy practitioners can become trapped in “golden handcuffs” inside their own businessesHow to recognize when your business is running youWhy a meaningful business pivot may take roughly 90 daysHow to restructure existing content instead of starting from zeroWhy spiritual entrepreneurs need business strategies designed for their industryReferences MentionedSpiritual Business BurnoutBusiness PivotingOffer PositioningTarget MarketGroup CoachingPrivate CoachingTaki MooreLead MagnetsLinkedInFacebookInstagramTikTokSpiritual EntrepreneurshipEmbodimentSomatic WorkBurnout RecoveryBusiness AlignmentConscious BusinessSpiritual Awakening1998 Spiritual Awakening2016 Awakening2020 Pandemic AwakeningProfessional Spiritual Practitioner ProgramResources MentionedKelle Spartahttps://kellesparta.comSpirit Guides Schoolhttps://learn.kellesparta.com

What happens when the relentless pursuit of success becomes the very thing that undermines our well-being? In this profound episode of Rx for Success, host Dr. Randy Cook sits down with Dr. Stuart Slavin—pediatrician, educator, researcher, and author of the new book The Success Trap: How the Pressure to Stand Out is Fueling Anxiety, Depression, and Burnout in Teens. Dr. Slavin shares his remarkable journey from a shy college student who wasn't sure medicine was for him to a transformative leader in medical education and physician well-being. He recounts the pivotal moment when he discovered that medical school itself was causing profound harm to students—and how he and his colleagues at St. Louis University transformed their curriculum, reducing depression and anxiety rates by 80% while actually improving academic performance. He also discusses his groundbreaking research on adolescent mental health, revealing that school-related pressures—not social media—are the top drivers of stress for today's youth. This conversation is a must-listen for anyone concerned about the well-being of the next generation of physicians and the culture that shapes them. Key Topics Discussed: Growing up with a physician father and a consumer advocate mother who modeled making a difference. The surprising path to medicine: deciding to apply to medical school mid-fall of senior year. Choosing pediatrics because of "who are my people?" and finding joy in the community. Getting a master's in education—a rare and career-defining decision. The pivotal moment: surveying medical students and realizing "we're doing this to them." Transforming the St. Louis University medical school curriculum: reducing class time, pass-fail grading, and freeing up time for meaning. The stunning results: 80% reduction in depression and anxiety, improved academic performance, and halved failure rates. The "success trap": how relentless achievement pressure and extrinsic motivation are harming young people. Research in 18 high schools: top stressors are school-related, not social media. The importance of sleep: average high school students get only 6.5 hours (need 9-10). Dr. Slavin's new book: The Success Trap—a parenting guide and call to rethink education. The wisdom of Viktor Frankl: success cannot be pursued; it must ensue from dedication to a cause greater than oneself. Big M and little M meaning: finding purpose in everyday moments of connection.

What happens when you stop living the life you think you're supposed to live and fully bet on yourself? Olivia Tiedemann's path to becoming a private chef and building an audience of millions was anything but planned. After a turbulent adolescence, she traveled to a remote island in Madagascar, found her way into restaurant kitchens, attended culinary school in Ireland, and spent years working in an industry that she loved but eventually left her burned out and deeply unhappy.

The Learning Leader Show with Ryan Hawk www.LearningLeader.com The Price of Becoming www.LearningLeader.com/Becoming My guest: Angela Duckworth is a psychologist and professor at the University of Pennsylvania, and a MacArthur "genius" grant recipient. Her book Grit was a #1 New York Times bestseller, and her TED Talk is among the most-watched ever. Her new book is Situated: Find the People and Places That Bring Out Your Best. Key Learnings She almost lost her mom in the Atlantic. Angela took her 87-year-old mom snorkeling miles offshore. Her mom had not swum in decades. Within minutes, she had aspirated water into both lungs and was unconscious. Angela treaded water, held her mom's head up with one arm, and waved the other until help came. Her mom is 91 now and painting. No amount of grit would have saved them. Angela could not have swum her mother to shore. What saved them was changing the situation, which meant getting other people to their side. The situation is the ocean. It's that powerful, and most of us don't know what water we're swimming in. Grit isn't wrong. It's incomplete. Angela hasn't renounced anything. She's expanding it. Effort is what you bring. The situation determines whether that effort compounds or gets swallowed. Angela was a striver, and it worked for a long time. She knew she wasn't the most talented kid, but nobody was going to outwork her. She wanted to make the cheerleading squad without being able to do a split. She wanted a solo in choir while barely able to carry a tune. She worked her way to both. Most people would be surprised how far sheer effort can take them. Then it stopped being enough. To get as far as she actually wanted to go, and to do it sustainably for herself and the people around her, ignoring the situation was a mistake.  The shift: stop making the best of your situation through effort alone, and make the situation better first. "Of all the ways you can change your behavior, willpower is the absolute worst." You can white-knuckle a donut. You just can't do it forever. Resisting works in the moment and reliably leaves people exhausted, which is why it fails on day three. Your urges come from your thoughts. Your thoughts come from your surroundings. Donut, delicious. Then your hand moves. Instead of fighting the urge, ask where the thought came from. The better question: what situation would give me different thoughts? Not "how do I resist," but "where can I be so that the thought never arrives?" Three inputs shape what you think: the people around you, the physical objects within reach, and the place you're in. Situational agency. Angela coined the term. The situation isn't given to you. It's taken. Leon Marchand was already sixth in the world. His parents, both former Olympians, didn't tell him to train harder or wake up earlier. They told him to change his situation. He emailed Bob Bowman, moved to Arizona, and within two years cut more than eight seconds off his personal best and broke Michael Phelps's last-standing individual world record. A year after that, he won four golds in Paris. What actually changed for Marchand: the best coach in the sport, a lane full of people who all believed they could win it all, better facilities and nutrition and physical therapy, and a culture where world-class was the baseline rather than the ceiling. The situation isn't a given. The situation's taken. Control the controllables. The situation is one of them. Angela agrees with the mantra. Her objection is that most people apply it only to what's between their ears: mindset, attitude, goals. Marchand didn't rethink his attitude. He got on a plane. Get the outside game right, and you get much of the inside game for free. Change the room and the thoughts change with it. Every reason you can't change your situation is probably true, and beside the point. When Angela told people what she was writing, they immediately listed the reasons they were stuck. The mother-in-law, the spouse's job, the kids' school. None of it is wrong. All of it ignores the list of things they could change. Her late father-in-law's whole philosophy was two words: show up. Wedding, funeral, baseball game. Show up. John Wooden taught high school English for 14 years. He kept an apple on his desk. He thought of himself as a teacher first, which is also why he sat high in the bleachers during games instead of courtside. He'd taught them in practice. The game was theirs. What Wooden's players took with them: to be your best at anything, find a great teacher. Angela sees a DIY culture pulling the other way. When she tells young people to email someone, the answer is often that they'll just learn it on YouTube or ask a chatbot. You can teach yourself a lot of guitar that way. You will not become a great guitarist alone. Belief is borrowed more than you'd think. Nobody tries hard at anything without the thought "I can do this" somewhere in their head. That thought usually arrives from someone else first. Angela was a self-described ditzy cheerleader throwing keg parties. Her 10th- and 12th-grade English teacher, Mr. Carr, saw a writer. He handed her books. He took time on her pages. By graduation, she was the rare Harvard freshman who signed up for a second semester of the required writing course, just to keep going. The Pygmalion effect. Bob Rosenthal made up a test, told elementary teachers which kids were about to bloom, and picked the names at random. The teachers called on those kids more, listened harder, encouraged more. By year's end, the kids fulfilled the prophecy they'd been randomly assigned. Every single person she has interviewed has a Mr. Carr. Olympic athletes, Olympic coaches, CEOs, world leaders. Someone who could see farther than they could see. Confidence is a half-filled helium balloon. It has to get batted back up again and again. Which means you don't need your mentor once. You need them on the bad days. Angela forwards her rejection letters to her team. The journals she submits to reject over 90 percent of submissions, and the rejections run eight single-spaced pages. She sends them around so the younger scientists watch her fail, hear that she's angry and discouraged, and then watch her get back up. She failed writing this book the first time. Up before dawn seven days a week through an entire sabbatical, and the clock ran out. She called her publisher and her agent to give the money back and asked whether she owed interest. They called it a pause. She said remote controls have separate buttons for pause and stop. Burnout and imposter syndrome were abstractions until they weren't. She had taught both. She had never lived either. Not eating, not sleeping. What got her out was not more effort. It was a better situation: additional editorial support and mentors to get her back on track. Frankl and Maslow argued about this for decades, and Maslow conceded. Self-actualization aimed only at yourself leaves you unfulfilled. Maslow's final writing added a level above it and named it self-transcendence. There are only two types of people: those who are humble, and those who are about to be humbled. Angela's champagne moment a year from now: celebrating the people around her. Erikson called this stage generativity, and the question it asks is how everything you've learned can help the next generation do better than you did. Her students should excel her. They should be the ones on podcasts. She wants to cede the spotlight on purpose rather than have it taken. Her core identity is psychological scientist. Not speaker. Not author. The stage is a flow state, and she's good at it, but take away the research, and it isn't her anymore. Worth knowing which one yours is. Reflection Questions Pick the goal you've been grinding on the longest with the least to show for it. Is that an effort problem or a situational problem? Who is the best in the world at the thing you're trying to learn? What would it take to send the email this week, and then get on the plane? What is your purpose, in one sentence, written down? Mine is to inspire others to value and pursue excellence. What's yours?

We are experiencing burnout, so we fantasize about leaving it all behind. What does this mean, and how can we find the middle way to achieve balance, boundaries, and ultimately a happy and content life? It turns out it's normal to fantasize about packing it all in, ditching the corporate grind, and running away to live in a tree with the squirrels. Rather than just daydreaming about abandoning all our adult responsibilities, we explore how to bring that elusive "cabin in the woods" peace directly into our messy, everyday lives. We break down practical ways to reclaim your time and sanity so you don't actually have to leave society to find your peace.Get the full show notes, show references, and more information here: https://www.insideoutmoney.org/178-burnout-boundaries-balance-middle-way/

What if the proven decline in the mental health of today's adolescents isn't just about phones and screen time? What if academic pressure and "achievement culture" is the real driver of the increase in anxiety and depression today's teens are experiencing? Dr. Stuart Slavin, pediatrician and author of THE SUCCESS TRAP, explains just how widespread academic pressure and "achievement culture" in the United States has become— not just in fancy schools on the coasts, and not just in high school, either. Amy and Dr. Slavin discuss: the average teen's default state of sleep deprivation, caused by hours of homework per night (work that may not even do much to change outcomes) the top stressors today's teens report—and why "peer pressure" doesn't even make the top ten how smartphones feed maladaptive perfectionism and achievement culture how schools that reduce demands on kids are also seeing improved test scores and academic performance how parents can create "low-pressure zones" at home how to advocate for healthier expectations at your kids' schools—and why you shouldn't fight that battle on your own Here's where you can find Dr. Slavin: https://drstuartslavin.com Buy THE SUCCESS TRAP: https://bookshop.org/a/12099/9780593839386 @drstuartslavin on IG What Fresh Hell is co-hosted by Amy Wilson and Margaret Ables.

After 20 years as a pediatrician, she stopped believing burnout meant she couldn't hack it. The problem was never her. In this episode, pediatrician and physician career development coach Gita Balakumar reframes burnout as a systemic burden wrongly blamed on the individual, and offers a different way to think about it. This episode is based on her article "What physicians and dragonflies share in resilience and agility," published on KevinMD. Drawing on the dragonfly, an insect revered across cultures for transformation and resilience, she explains why the demands of medicine ask physicians to keep evolving. You will hear why self-compassion is a foundation and not a luxury, how career coaching helps physicians name what they actually value, and why the idea that doctors just aren't resilient enough is a fallacy. Hear why she says the most resilient people in medicine still deserve compassion, and that seeking support is a strength, not a failure. Partner with me on the KevinMD platform.

Food as Medicine: Why Medical Nutrition Therapy and Medically Tailored Meals Belong in Modern Healthcare: Registered dietitian nutritionist Leyla Muedin argues that food should be treated with the same rigor as medication through medical nutrition therapy (MNT) and “diet prescriptions,” integrating nutrition into treatment plans rather than leaving it as optional advice. She cites evidence that medically tailored meals (MTMs) can improve outcomes and reduce costs, including a Health Affairs simulation estimating $23.7B in first-year net savings nationwide and a Nature Medicine analysis of a Massachusetts Medicaid demonstration (2020–2023) showing MTM recipients had 31% fewer hospitalizations, 20% fewer emergency visits, and $3,433 lower total healthcare costs, offsetting 98% of program costs. She discusses food insecurity, expanding Medicaid coverage via Section 1115 waivers, EHR integration, and how MTMs support adherence for conditions such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, chronic kidney disease, depression, and IBS (including low FODMAP).

Curt and Katie talk with Kimberly Johnson, PhD, LMHCD, a counselor educator at Touro University with more than thirty years of clinical experience in trauma, crisis, and disaster mental health, and Lucy Li, MD, a pediatric anesthesiologist at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. Both serve on the board of the Emotional PPE Project, a volunteer-run nonprofit reducing the barriers that keep healthcare workers from accessing mental health care. Healthcare workers rarely arrive in therapy looking the way the distress would suggest. They mask, they overcompensate, and they spend session time explaining the job before they get to what the job has done to them. Kimberly describes the trifecta therapists often flatten into ordinary workplace burnout: burnout, compassion fatigue and complex trauma, and moral injury braided together, frequently presenting subclinically. Lucy describes the same terrain from inside medicine, including what shifted for her after her friend and co-resident died by suicide during residency. They also walk through the Emotional PPE Project's directory of volunteer therapists and its ePPE 101 training for mental health professionals who want to work with healthcare workers well. In this episode, we discuss: - Why healthcare workers are a heterogeneous population, not a single clinical profile - How burnout, complex trauma, and moral injury show up together and subclinically - The intake questions that surface occupational risk factors early - Why moral injury sits where occupational, vocational, and personal identity stop aligning - What stigma costs healthcare workers, their patients, and the workforce - How the Emotional PPE Project connects healthcare workers to free, confidential care - Why the same barriers show up for therapists as healthcare providers Timestamps: - 02:38 - What therapists get wrong with healthcare workers - 07:11 - Professional humility and the questions worth asking early - 09:24 - Burnout, trauma, and moral injury as a trifecta - 15:30 - Where moral injury actually lives - 17:43 - Stigma and the fear of seeking care - 22:00 - The second victim effect and being sent home - 25:10 - Beyond pizza parties: what structural support looks like - 33:27 - Inside the Emotional PPE Project and ePPE 101 Guest Bios: Kimberly Johnson, PhD, LMHCD is Director of Special Projects and Assistant Professor in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Touro University, a licensed therapist in New York, a certified Compassion Fatigue Therapist and Educator and Field Traumatologist, and a Diplomate with the American Academy of Experts in Traumatic Stress. Lucy Li, MD is an attending anesthesiologist in Pediatric Anesthesiology at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and a board member of the Emotional PPE Project. She completed her anesthesiology residency at Massachusetts General Hospital, where she was chief resident, and focuses on physician mental health and wellness.

In this episode of Workday Playdate, Erin sits down with Yana Carstens, an integrative executive coach, to explore why high performers often burn out faster than anyone else—and why the solution isn't always to simply lighten the workload. Yana makes the case that burnout is often a reflection of our internal operating system: the beliefs, identities, and patterns that shape how we respond to pressure, achievement, and success. If you've ever wondered why you can know you need better boundaries and still struggle to set them, this conversation is for you. Yana shares how somatic awareness, mindset recalibration, honest communication, and authentic connection can help you recognize the patterns driving exhaustion and create a more sustainable way to succeed. Inside This Episode: Burnout Is More Than a Workload Problem: Yana explains why burnout isn't always about having too much on your plate. For high performers, the deeper issue can be the internal wiring that tells us we need to be responsible, perfect, useful, or constantly achieving in order to feel worthy. Your Body Is Giving You Data: Physical signals like neck tension, shoulder aches, and anxiety aren't just inconveniences to push through. Yana shares how these signals can act like a dashboard, revealing when we're operating from old patterns or beliefs that no longer serve us. Your Strengths Can Become Your Blind Spots: Traits like responsibility, high standards, and a strong drive to help others can be powerful strengths—but they can also become “anchors” that keep us stuck. Yana explores how hyper-responsibility, perfectionism, and people-pleasing can quietly fuel burnout. Recalibrate Your Internal Operating System: Instead of automatically reacting to stress, Yana offers practical ways to pause, notice what's happening internally, and question the beliefs driving our responses. She shares tools for shifting from autopilot into more intentional, values-aligned action. Use Your Values as Your Wind: Yana uses the metaphor of a boat, anchors, and wind to explain the difference between disempowering beliefs that hold us back and core values that help us move forward. The goal isn't to eliminate stress, but to make sure we're navigating it in a direction that actually matters to us. What to Do Now: Notice Your Signals: The next time you feel tension, anxiety, irritation, or exhaustion, pause and ask what your body might be trying to tell you before you automatically push through. Question the Belief: When you notice yourself overworking, people-pleasing, or striving for perfection, ask: “What am I believing I have to do or prove right now?” Find Your North Star: Identify one core value that matters most to you right now, then consider whether your current habits, boundaries, and decisions are moving you toward it—or keeping you anchored. About the Guest Yana Carstens is an integrative executive coach who helps high-performing leaders understand the internal patterns that influence how they work, lead, and respond to stress. Through a combination of mindset work, somatic awareness, and practical coaching tools, Yana helps people recalibrate their internal operating systems so they can pursue meaningful success without sacrificing their well-being. Her work centers on helping leaders build greater self-awareness, healthier boundaries, authentic connection, and a more sustainable relationship with achievement.

Have you ever felt guilty for saying no?For many of us, being “the helpful one” becomes part of our identity.

Labor Live is your chance to practice navigating labor before you're actually in it. This interactive birth simulation delivers real-life labor scenarios straight to your phone, letting you make decisions, explore your options, and learn what questions to ask your provider along the way. Labor Live starts September 1. Head to https://joinlaborlive.com/ to save your spot! Low amniotic fluid can be one of those pregnancy diagnoses that sends you straight into a Google rabbit hole. So in this episode, HeHe sits down with board-certified OBGYN Dr. Lawren Honken to break down oligohydramnios, what it actually means, how it's diagnosed, and when low fluid may or may not mean it's time to induce. Dr. Lawren explains how providers measure amniotic fluid, including the difference between the single deepest pocket and AFI, and why one measurement may give us a more useful picture than the other. They also dig into what can contribute to low fluid, from dehydration and placental function to hypertension, preeclampsia, fetal growth restriction, ruptured membranes, and other pregnancy complications. And then we get into the big question: Does low amniotic fluid automatically mean you need an induction? Spoiler: it's more nuanced than that. HeHe and Dr. Lawren talk through hydration and repeat ultrasounds, fetal monitoring, the risks associated with truly low fluid, ACOG guidance for isolated oligohydramnios, and what happens when you're trying to decide whether to continue the pregnancy or move toward delivery. They also have a really important conversation about informed consent, trauma-informed care, provider communication, and why a diagnosis shouldn't automatically mean you're rushed into a decision without understanding your options. Because sometimes the most empowering thing your provider can give you isn't another intervention. It's information, context, and the space to make an informed decision about your own body and baby. If you've been told you have low amniotic fluid, you're being monitored for oligohydramnios, or you're trying to understand when an induction is actually medically indicated, this is one you want in your back pocket.

What if the way you measure success is actually what's burning you out? Erika Coleman thought she had it figured out. Give your best, maybe a little more, and things work out. It worked for years, until it didn't. In 2022, her mom was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer. And for the next 14 months, she watched her business sales and her mom's health drop in tandem. She gave more and more and more, following every rule, checking every box. But the results didn't go up. They went down. Her mom passed away. Two months later, she had to close her business. And then her body finally shut down. She was too tired to smile at her daughter's drawing. That's when she knew something had to change.Erika Coleman is a high-performance researcher, speaker, and founder of the Even Achieving method. After earning her master's degree from Harvard studying stress, well-being, and performance, she discovered what most of us get wrong about pacing. It's not about slowing down. It's not about protecting your energy. Pacing is an athletic endeavor. It's how you win your race without killing yourself in the process.In this episode, we cover:Why giving your all doesn't mean you're giving your best, and how to tell the differenceThe hidden cost of using effort to prove you care (and what to measure instead)How grief and business demand collide, and why pushing harder makes both worseWhat happens when your body finally shuts down after months of overrideThe small moments that matter most when you're chasing big, Instagram-worthy memoriesHow to pace yourself like an athlete, not a martyrWhy high performance requires rest, not more hustleThis episode is for you if:You've been giving everything you have and the results still aren't what you expectedYou're carrying grief, caregiving, or health challenges while trying to keep your business afloatYou use busyness to prove you care, and you're burnout and exhaustedYou've hit a point where your body won't let you push anymoreYou want to learn how to give your best without giving your allConnect with Erika Coleman: https://www.erikacolemanspeaks.com

Last week, we talked about overwhelm and the signs that you may be carrying more than you realize. Because sometimes overwhelm doesn't look like falling apart. Sometimes, you're still showing up. Still handling business. Still taking care of everyone else. Still checking things off the list. But underneath all of that productivity, you may be mentally exhausted, emotionally drained, easily irritated, disconnected, or simply feeling like you don't have anything left to give. So what happens when we ignore those signs? In this replay of Episode 53, I'm joined by Burnout Strategist, Coach, and Psychologist Dr. Raushannah Johnson-Verwayne, also known as Dr. RJ, for an important conversation about recognizing burnout and understanding the toll that constantly doing more can take on our minds, bodies, relationships, and overall well-being. If last week's episode made you stop and think, “Whew... this might be me,” then this conversation is your next step. Because recognizing that you're overwhelmed is important. But understanding when overwhelm is becoming burnout, and what you can do about it, is important too. Press play, take a breath, and let's talk about battling burnout.

Jim Kwik on Memory, AI, and Why Natural Intelligence Beats Artificial Intelligence Your brain is quietly outsourcing itself to AI, and you won't notice until it's gone. This episode gives you the exact framework to use artificial intelligence as a tool for brain optimization instead of a crutch that erodes your memory, focus, and critical thinking. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Jim Kwik, one of the world's leading experts in memory improvement, brain optimization, and accelerated learning. For more than 30 years, Jim has served as the brain coach to professional athletes, political leaders, business magnates, and Hollywood icons, with corporate clients including Google, Nike, SpaceX, and Harvard. He hosts the Kwik Brain podcast with over 100 million downloads, reaches 200,000 people annually through live keynotes, and just wrapped his 14th annual Beyond Biohacking Conference with 5,000 attendees in Austin. Jim overcame a childhood brain injury that left him labeled "learning disabled," and turned that struggle into a mission he calls "no brain left behind." They break down the MIT study showing that people who use AI to write and think score worse on memory and comprehension than those who rely on their own brains, and why that matters for anyone serious about longevity, human performance, and anti-aging. Jim introduces the concept of digital dementia and cognitive sovereignty, explaining how nootropics, neuroplasticity, and functional medicine can support your biology while AI still requires you to keep your own hardware sharp. They cover the MEDS Rx framework for brain optimization: meditation, exercise, diet, sleep optimization, and relationships, plus why mitochondria, metabolism, and inflammation from processed food directly impact your cognitive output. Jim also shares how his own kids use AI as a tutor rather than a replacement for thinking, and why sleep inertia and the first few minutes after waking set the tone for your entire day. This is essential listening for anyone serious about biohacking, hacking their own brain, longevity, neuroplasticity, brain optimization, supplements, and building a Smarter Not Harder approach to human performance in the age of AI. You'll Learn: Why the MIT study found AI users had weaker memory and comprehension than people who did the work themselves What digital dementia and digital deduction are, and how they quietly erode your cognitive muscles How to use AI as an augmented intelligence partner instead of a replacement for critical thinking The MEDS Rx framework for brain optimization: meditation, exercise, diet, sleep, and relationships Why the first few minutes after waking determine your focus and mood for the entire day How spaced repetition and AI-assisted learning can lock in new skills and behavior change faster The HUMAN framework for staying irreplaceable in a world run by algorithms Thank you to our sponsors! - KILLSwitch | If you're ready for the best sleep of your life, order now at https://www.switchsupplements.com/and use code DAVE for 20% off - Neuronic | Go to www.neuronic.online Code DAVE for $100 off - Our Place | Upgrade your kitchen with Our Place today.

It has always been the people.In this conversation, Brenda and Ambica dig into what happens when the urgency of AI meets the human cost of change, why empathy is the most underrated technical skill, what a brutal performance review 15 years ago taught Ambica about the difference between expertise and leadership, and why she believes the most courageous thing a woman in tech can do right now is invest in her own resilience.This is a conversation about clarity, transformation, and what it really means to make your path the evidence of the change you believe in.Connect with Ambica on LinkedInWe Learned About:Why empathy, not speed, is the real foundation of successful enterprise AI deploymentThe critical distinction between self-expression and authenticity, and why getting it wrong costs you influence in the roomAmbica's leadership mantra "Clarity wins the day" and what it actually looks like to apply it inside high-stakes, fast-moving organizationsHow a 15-year-old performance review that said "your team doesn't like you much" became one of the most transformative moments of her careerThe difference between being a journey person and a goal person, and why knowing which one you are changes everything about how you leadChapters:0:00 Introduction & Season Theme1:00 Meet Ambica Rajagopal, Group Chief Data and AI Officer2:30 Why Empathy Is the Only Way to Get AI Transformation Right5:30 Empathy as Active Common Ground, Not Passive Sympathy7:00 What Has Remained Constant Across Industries: Clarity and People10:00 How Ambica Stays Grounded When Performance Metrics Are Always On11:00 Meditation, Mental Space, and the "Room of One's Own" Framework13:30 Has Leading with Balance Ever Cost You Anything?15:00 The Shift from Showing Up as an Expert to Showing Up as a Leader17:30 Journey Person vs. Goal Person: How Ambica Defines Her Own Motivation19:30 When Personal Transformation Gets Tested the Most20:30 The Performance Review That Changed Everything23:00 Vulnerability in Leadership and Why It Takes More Courage Than Being Right24:30 Authenticity vs. Self-Expression: A Framework Worth Knowing27:00 Who Is Most at Risk of Burnout in the AI Era30:00 Advice for Early-Career Women in Data Science Who Are Already Exhausted32:00 Building Resilience and Finding Your Sources of Courage33:30 What Integrity in Leadership Actually Looks Like34:30 "Make Your Path the Evidence of the Change You Believe In"36:00 Closing Thoughts: People Always Come Before the Technology#BTheWayForward #WomenInAI #AITransformation #EmpathyInLeadership #WomenInTech #DataAndAI #TechLeadership #CourageToTransform

On today's episode of The CLS Experience, Craig Siegel sits down with Lacey Newman, founder, coach, real estate juggernaut and keynote speaker, for a powerful conversation about success, freedom, AI, and what it really means to build a life that doesn't require you to constantly over-function. Lacey shares how she scaled a real estate team to nearly $1B in sales, hosted an Emmy-nominated TV show, and ultimately realized that more money wasn't the answer - freedom, alignment, and actually loving her calendar were. They dive into how to use AI without losing your voice through the 10-80-10 rule, why over-functioning can become a fast track to burnout, and how delegation, spirituality, motherhood, and trusting your intuition can completely change the way you lead. If you're a high performer who wants to create more freedom without sacrificing the soul behind what you're building, this conversation is for you.02:25 How to Use AI Without Losing Your Soul06:22 The 10-80-10 Rule for Keeping Your Voice12:25 Why Overfunctioning Is a Fast Track to Burnout13:54 Redefining Success Beyond Money36:45 Delegation, AI, and the Freedom to LeadCheck out Lacey's AI for Ambitious Women Workshop on August 25th HERE:Check out Lacey on Instagram HERE:Check out Lacey HERE:Early Bird Tickets now available for our October live event, CLS: Formation HERE:To join our community click here.➤ Order a copy of Craig's book The Reinvention Formula today! ➤ Join our CLS texting community for free daily inspiration and wisdom to elevate your life, text (917) 634-3796➤ INSTAGRAM➤ FACEBOOK➤ TIKTOK➤ YOUTUBE➤ WEBSITE➤ LINKEDIN➤ X

Rest, By Force or By Choice: Burnout, Self-Care, and Sustainable Practice for Therapists - An Interview with Cecily Moore, PhD Dr. Cecily Moore on burnout, rest as a clinical intervention, and unlearning the Strong Black Woman Narrative. Curt and Katie talk with Dr. Cecily Moore, a licensed therapist, counselor educator, and clinical supervisor, about why the expectation of endless strength and infinite patience is an unsustainable ask for therapists and other helping professionals. As clinicians carry collective grief and moral exhaustion alongside their clients, Dr. Moore reframes what burnout is actually asking of us. At the center of the conversation is a simple, uncomfortable idea: your body is designed to protect you, so you will stop either by force or by choice. Dr. Moore makes the case for rest as a clinical intervention rather than a reward, unpacks how self-care has been co-opted into something you buy instead of something that restores you, and explains why advocacy that runs on depletion is a ticking time bomb. Real self-care, she argues, is honest about limits, boundaries, and capacity. From there the discussion turns practical. Dr. Moore shares how deeper values work (asking where a value came from and how it was modeled) opens the door to change, how her "BS Job" checklist gives clinicians a concrete mirror for what is draining them, and why systems will not shift until the people inside them do. She also connects this to her research on unlearning the Strong Black Woman Narrative and the survival-based beliefs about strength, productivity, and worth that keep so many helpers over-functioning. This is a grounded, hopeful conversation for any therapist trying to build a sustainable career without abandoning the work they care about. In this episode, we discuss: - Why endless strength and infinite patience are an unsustainable ask for helping professionals - How to tell rest as a clinical intervention apart from self-care that has been co-opted - Why your body will make you stop, by force or by choice - How to size your advocacy to your actual capacity so it does not deplete you - What deeper values work looks like, and why it drives real change - Why unlearning survival-based beliefs about strength and worth makes practice more sustainable Timestamps: - 01:20 - Who Dr. Moore is and what she puts into the world - 02:49 - What therapists get wrong about endless strength and infinite patience - 04:17 - Collective trauma and watching the world change in real time - 06:37 - Moral injury, privilege, and truth-telling across lived experience - 10:29 - How self-care got co-opted, and why advocacy runs on your well-being - 13:07 - Why rest feels so scary - 15:00 - Reframing self-care as self-maintenance - 18:58 - Over-functioning students and learning to be human - 22:49 - Insight versus implementation, and the systemic barriers - 24:15 - Why systems can't shift until the people do - 28:13 - Sustainable choices, by force or by choice - 29:16 - Values work and the "BS Job" checklist - 31:24 - The Strong Black Woman Narrative and questioning conditioning - 35:28 - Where to find Dr. Moore Guest Bio: Dr. Cecily Moore is a licensed therapist, counselor educator, researcher, and clinical supervisor with a PhD in Counselor Education and Supervision.
