Podcasts about Burnout

Burnout isn't just about energy depletion — it's often about disconnection. In this episode, Dora shares how a quiet walk in the woods reawakened her sense of wonder and helped her reconnect to herself. Drawing on the wisdom of spring and Parker Palmer's reflections on rebirth, she invites us to find awe in small moments and trust that growth is happening even when it's invisible.

This is a Fan Fav episode. As much as you hate to admit it, relationships are vital to our happiness and success in life. The relationship you have with yourself , your romantic partner, your family, friends and co-workers dictate more than you can imagine. Dr. Molly Maloof, author of The Spark Factor, believes in relationships and connections so much she's created a lecture for Stanford University called Live Better Longer. She touches on the value of social connection and its impact on long-term health and disease. Molly talks with Lisa in this episode and runs down the power of love, what intense romantic love feels like, and an entire masterclass on sexual desire and arousal. The fact that Molly ranks love in the same category of needs as thirst and hunger says a lot. In addition to unpacking the power of love, Molly also covers the power a loss of love has on your physical and mental health. So much of her explanation fills the voids we have in understanding why a bad break can make us feel crazy and do things out of character.

Is it hustle… or is it survival mode? In today's episode, we unpack what it really means to balance grit and grace in a world that glorifies grind culture. From the chaos of modern schedules to the pressure to do it all, we're cutting through the noise to talk about how flexibility, consistency, and mindset shifts can help you stay in the game without burning out. We share how our own routines have evolved—especially as parents, business owners, and health professionals—and how you can build sustainable habits that don't require perfection. Plus, we weigh in on the ancestral health debate, shifting your mindset for better outcomes, and the small actions that actually move the needle for long-term health. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed or just trying to find a rhythm that works, this one's for you. What You'll Learn: Why balance doesn't mean 50/50, and what to aim for instead How to stay consistent when life gets chaotic The mindset shift that makes health sustainable Where ancestral health advice falls short in the modern world Why your version of self-care matters more than any trend Press play, and let's build a life where health supports your hustle—not drains it.

What makes burnout different from exhaustion or fatigue? In episode 136 of Overthink, Ellie and David look at the history of the term burnout and its surprising connection to social justice. They also explore Byung-Chul Han's reading of burnout as a natural consequence of “achievement culture.”  How does our mindless scrolling on TikTok and Instagram reveal our inability to be bored and meditate? And how does this  contribute to our personal and collective run-ins with burnout? Why do so many people, academics included, fail to recognize their own burnout? And is it even possible to escape burnout in a capitalist society? In the bonus, your hosts talk about the shame surrounding burnout, errand paralysis, and the relationship between burnout and compulsive buying.Works Discussed:Herbert J.

In the second of our small series on Mental Health at Work, Jenn Mason and I tackled a really challenging episode (as you can see by the title). We jumped right in by asking if resilience is being "weaponized" - used as a justification for harmful systems rather than a skill to be supported.  We explore the dark side of a resilience culture, where praising people for surviving toxic, high-demand environments becomes a smokescreen for the actual problem. What is the difference between empowering people to heal versus requiring them to manage the harm inflicted upon them by broken systems? We talk about how this "grind it out" mentality is often hard-coded generationally, something Jenn and I personally experienced coming up in the Gen X workforce.  We share our own stories and hope you'll enjoy them as well.

Dr. Hirsch brings unique insights from her dual role as a practicing internist and chair of her hospital's peer review committee, where she witnessed firsthand how communication breakdowns and behavioral issues can derail medical careers. Now certified as a physician coach, she specializes in helping doctors navigate burnout, perfectionism, imposter syndrome, and the communication challenges that often lead to peer review situations. Dr. Hirsch shares practical strategies for achieving work-life harmony, the critical importance of communication skills in preventing patient safety issues, and how physicians can rediscover meaning in their careers. She also discusses her additional role as medical director for "Healthy Practices," showing how retired physicians can leverage their expertise in new ways while maintaining professional fulfillment.

What if your mindset coaching skills, not your marketing, are the real bottleneck holding your business back? I'm joined by Dr. Kasey Jo Orvidas, a psychologist and creator of the Health Mindset Coaching Certification, to explore how building stronger coaching skills, especially around client mindset, can dramatically shift both your client results and your business outcomes.

Kasey shares practical insights from her own journey and explains why addressing mindset goes far beyond just “good vibes only.” If you've ever felt stuck with a client who “knows what to do but just isn't doing it,” this conversation is a must-listen.

Let's talk about burnout—but not the emotional kind.

In this episode, we welcome Lisa Zawrotny, a productivity coach with a rich background as a caregiver, mother, and business owner. Lisa shares her journey from caregiving to coaching, emphasizing the importance of compassionate and sustainable productivity systems, especially for those managing ADHD or high-stress roles. We discuss the nuances of burnout versus overwhelm, the significance of self-awareness, and practical strategies to enhance productivity without sacrificing well-being.Key Moments:Lisa shares her journey from caregiver to productivity coach, highlighting the challenges of managing burnout and overwhelm.Burnout can manifest as constant dread, resentment, and exhaustion, while overwhelm often feels like having too much to do without knowing where to start.Knowing and accepting oneself is crucial for building effective productivity systems tailored to individual needs.Before implementing systems, decluttering and simplifying tasks is essential to create a manageable workload.Productivity should support life, not the other way around. Rest and self-care are integral to sustainable productivity.Productivity systems should be customized to fit how individuals work best, especially for those with ADHD or other unique challenges.Moving away from hustle culture and redefining success can alleviate feelings of inadequacy and burnout.Lisa discusses various tools and methods, such as the Pomodoro technique and Kanban boards, to enhance productivity.Engaging with a community and seeking support can help individuals navigate their productivity challenges.Lisa is working on new workshops and a signature program to further support individuals in their productivity journeys.To learn more about Lisa Zawrotny please visit her Linkedin ProfileTo learn more about Lisa Zawrotny please visit her website.YOUR HOST - SIMON LADER    Simon Lader is the host of The Conference Room, Co-Founder of global executive search firm Salisi Human Capital, and lead generation consultancy Flow and Scale.

Since when did homemaking in heels become aspirational again? This week, we're diving into the viral world of tradwifeculture: the soft lit, stay-at-home fantasy that's taken over TikTok. We unpack how this ultra-feminine, domestic aesthetic is being glamorized by influencers like Nara Smith and Estee Williams, and ask: is this just cottagecore with better branding, or something more dangerous? We trace the history of the traditional housewife ideal, from 1950s suburbia to its deeply racist, exclusionary roots, and examine how today's revival may be less about “choice” and more about disillusionment with modern feminism. What happens when burnout meets nostalgia? And who gets left out when we romanticize the past? From parasocial sourdough to the performance of wifedom online, we're asking the bigger questions: Is tradwife culture empowering? Is it regressive? And what does it say about where we are right now?

There's nothing quite like the electric buzz of a FASTer Way event. The hugs. The breakthroughs. The “I'm not alone in this” moments. In this episode, Amanda spills why our live gatherings are pure magic for connection, accountability, and transformation — and drops a hint that even more in-person experiences are coming your way. But first… a revelation! Amanda recently discovered she's allergic to Florida. Yes, really. That revelation sent her down an unexpected rabbit hole into the world of mold toxicity. Those nagging symptoms — depression, brain fog, stubborn fatigue, and that strange “wired but exhausted” feeling — might not just be “life”... they could be mold talking. When Amanda spends time at her home in Costa Rica, the difference is instant. “It is like a veil lifted,” she says, and she can see just how much her environment has been impacting her health.  Now, she's on a targeted healing protocol: a low histamine diet, strategic supplements, and regular bloodwork with Dr. Stephen Cabral.

He hunted deals, swung hammers, managed tenants, and even camped out in his properties during renovations. The hands-on hustle taught him a ton—but it also burned him out. By 2010, Kirk had sold off his portfolio and hit pause on real estate. Fast forward a few years… Kirk discovered Vreeland Capital and turnkey investing. That's when everything changed. Today, as a Vreeland Capital client, Kirk owns 19 rental properties and has turned an initial $451K into $1.2M in returns—a 276% gain—all while focusing on his CPA career and his family. In this episode of The Real Estate Fastpass Podcast, you'll hear: - Kirk's early “do-it-all” investing days—and why they weren't sustainable - How burnout led him to a 5-year plus break from real estate - The mindset shift that allowed him to grow without doing the work himself - How turnkey investing with Vreeland Capital helped him re-scale all the way to 19 doors - Why make-readies and repairs should be seen as investments, not expenses - The four pillars of rental wealth—and how they compound over time If you've ever felt the grind of self-managing or wondered how to scale without sacrificing your career, Kirk's story is proof that you can build a thriving portfolio and keep your sanity.

About Jimmy Vreeland Jimmy graduated from the United States Military Academy at West Point, spent 5 years as an Army Ranger, and deployed three times twice to Iraq and once to Afghanistan. On his last deployment, he read Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki which led him down the path of real estate investing. As his own portfolio grew, eventually he started a real estate investing business.  Since 2018 his team at Vreeland Capital has supplied over 100 houses a year to high performing, passive investors who want to work with his team and his team is now managing over 800 houses.

Burnout Isn't What You Think—Fix It Without the Fallout  “Is this really as good as it gets?"  You're performing well but still feel drained at the end of the day. Everyone assumes you've got it figured out. Secretly, you wonder if something's wrong with you. Blake Schofield understands. After 18 years in corporate, she discovered most leaders don't recognize burnout because we've normalized stress and exhaustion. Your Burnout Story Isn't What You Think Burnout isn't about hitting a wall—it's chronic misalignment. If you're constantly navigating cycles of high stress, lower energy, and feeling drained while still performing, you're in burnout. Common patterns include:  ● Pushing through because "that's what leaders do" ● Normalizing tension and fatigue as success  ● Choosing between work and life constantly  ● Believing productivity hacks, a vacation or changing jobs will solve it Burnout isn't a character flaw. It's a misalignment between how you're wired to thrive and how you're working. True Success Means Alignment The truth is that burnout is a symptom of misalignment. "The real issue is that tactics only work if you solve the root cause first," Blake explains. True success means removing deeper misalignments that create energy leaks and lead to dissatisfaction. When you lead with alignment, you can perform with clarity, confidence, and ease.   Episode Highlights Understanding burnout:  [00:41] - Why burnout is often more subtle and chronic than you think  [01:47] - How to recognize the signs even when you're still performing well The root cause approach:  [02:23] - Why most burnout tactics fail to create lasting change  [03:31] - How neuroscience-backed strategy uncovers what's really draining you Growth & Alignment: [04:18] - "You're not broken, you're not alone, and nothing's wrong with you.” [04:21] - Learning how you're naturally wired to thrive    Powerful Quotes "Burnout is actually a state of misalignment. If you are constantly navigating cycles of high stress, lower energy, feeling drained at the end of the day, and not feeling as fulfilled or energized by your work, you are in burnout." –Blake Schofield "Burnout doesn't always scream. Often it whispers. Why am I so drained at the end of the day? I should feel more fulfilled or I should be happy. Is this really as good as it gets?" –Blake Schofield "You're not broken, you're not alone, and nothing's wrong with you. Fixing burnout is not about not being capable. It's about learning a new way to lead and live." –Blake Schofield   Resources Mentioned Burnout Type Quiz: https://www.impactwithease.com/burnout-type   Enter the Giveaway + Win Prizes!

What if burnout isn't a breakdown—but your path to a breakthrough When we're deep in burnout, it feels like everything is falling apart. But in truth, burnout may be the most honest message your body and soul have ever sent you. In this solo episode, I'm sharing a different way to look at burnout—not as a failure, but as a fierce invitation to realign your life from the inside out. If you've been exhausted, disconnected, or quietly wondering how much longer you can keep going like this… this conversation is for you. Burnout isn't just about stress or being busy. It's about living out of sync with your values, pushing through patterns like people-pleasing, perfectionism, and over-responsibility that eventually leave you empty. But if you're willing to listen to what your burnout is really trying to tell you, you can begin again—with more clarity, more truth, and more freedom than ever before.   What we explore: Why burnout is not the enemy—but a wake-up call The deeper root causes of burnout that go beyond stress and overwork How patterns like proving, perfectionism, and people-pleasing keep you stuck in exhaustion The pivotal mindset shift from “How do I fix this?” to “What is my burnout revealing?” Why burnout can be a sacred portal to realignment, authenticity, and sustainable joy   This isn't about going back to who you were. It's about becoming who you're meant to be. If you're walking through burnout right now, know this: it's not the end. It's your beginning.  If you're ready to take the next step toward becoming a successful life coach, I invite you to download my free workbook: Rewrite the Story Keeping You Stuck: Become the Life Coach You're Meant to Be

I wasn't sure whether to do a solo episode on burnout, because honestly, it felt a bit embarrassing to admit.

This snack episode reveals the market gaps driving demand for this intensive format and the measurable outcomes participants can expect.  Key Highlights:  The number one complaint from practice owners is always time, followed closely by burnout and isolation  Most clients don't see bottom-line changes for 90 days, but the intensive provides immediate clarity and a strategic roadmap  Ideal participants have at least one year of practice ownership experience and are financially stable enough to invest in growth  Physical changes often appear first - better sleep, reduced tension, faster decision-making  Average client ROI is 10x within 12-18 months, with most recouping their investment within 90 days  The program bridges the gap between clinical excellence and business leadership confidence  Memorable Quotes: "There's such a difference between clinical excellence and confidence and business excellence and confidence."  "A lot of times once we get to know somebody, they'll confess later: 'Yeah, I feel like I don't really know what I'm doing,' and that's incredibly difficult for any highly trained professional to admit."  "You set the tone for the culture of your practice. And that can have an incredibly positive impact on your entire team, and that goes out to your patients and that ripples out to your community."  This episode offers a rare glimpse into the methodology behind helping healthcare providers reclaim their time while building thriving, sustainable practices. Whether you're feeling stuck or ready to scale, Tracy's insights provide a clear path forward.  Miranda's Bio:  Miranda Dorta, B.F.A.

Hey, Heal Squad! We're back with Part 2 of our powerful conversation with triple board-certified physician and thought leader Dr. Zach Bush, and this one dives even deeper into what it really takes to heal. Dr. Bush shares the emotional and biological impact of disconnection, from our bodies, our purpose, and the natural world. He explains why so many of us feel numb, inflamed, or stuck in survival mode. We explore how today's chronic symptoms aren't just physical issues, but signs of soul sickness: a profound disconnection from our bodies, our purpose, and the living world around us. He reveals how modern environments suppress our nervous systems and steal our vitality, and why true healing begins with restoring inner stillness and reconnecting to nature. Zach also opens up about the “I Am” frequency, indigenous wisdom, and how suffering can actually be the portal to remembering who we really are.If you're feeling off and nothing seems to be working, this conversation might just be the medicine you need. HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS: Disconnection rewires your biology. From gut inflammation to emotional numbness, Dr. Zach reveals how disconnection from nature, community, and self fuels disease… and how restoring connection brings the body back online. The nervous system won't heal in survival mode. Burnout, fatigue, and chronic illness thrive in a culture of overstimulation and overperformance. Zach shares why stillness, biodiversity, and the power of presence are the medicine our bodies are wired for. You are not broken, you've just forgotten who you are. Through suffering, we're given the chance to return to the “I Am.” Dr. Zach explains how embracing pain (instead of escaping it) becomes the portal to healing, purpose, and reconnection. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy's Page: Shop My Macy's Storefront Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/  Join In-Person Heal Retreat Waitlist! https://mariamenounos.myflodesk.com/heal-retreat-waitlist GUEST RESOURCES: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/zachbushmd/ Website: https://zachbushmd.com/  ION Support: http://www.ionbiome.com  ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos' passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.
