October 9, 2025: Burnout isn't always burnout — sometimes it's just work that's lost its rhythm. In today's Future-Ready Today episode, Jacob Morgan explores six powerful signals reshaping the modern workplace. From Google tightening its hybrid work policy to new data revealing that most corporate cultures aren't ready for AI, the future of work is moving from convenience to clarity. You'll hear how job seekers are prioritizing reputation over perks, why “linchpin” executives are cracking under pressure, and how one-third of leaders are now testing AI before hiring. Then Jacob takes aim at the burnout narrative — separating stress from exhaustion, and explaining why the real issue is recovery, not overwork. He closes with the 1%-a-Day Challenge: one practical habit to build discipline, focus, and energy for the long game of leadership. If you lead teams or shape culture, this episode will help you rethink what it truly means to be future-ready in an era where easy work is over — and meaningful work is what's next.

Send us a textBurnout doesn't just come from the calls—it grows in the silence after, inside a culture that either catches you or drops you. We sit down with Renae, a former firefighter-paramedic who now coaches first responders on burnout recovery and nervous system regulation, to unpack how leadership betrayal, union politics, and the loss of seasoned mentors quietly shape morale, retention, and the quality of care on scene.Renae walks us through two starkly different departments: one with strong traditions, shared meals, and senior firefighters who taught without needing stripes; another that pushed out elders, fast-tracked promotions, and sold “progress” through spoken promises that never made it to paper. The result? Rapid rank with thin experience, confused standards, and burnout that looks like apathy but feels like betrayal. Along the way, we explore why it's easier to part ways in anger than on good terms, how that psychology plays out in unions and leadership, and what happens when EMS integration shifts priorities without protecting mentorship.This conversation is practical at its core. We outline how to rebuild a real firehouse: formalize mentorship roles for elders, protect shared rituals that transmit norms, and require written commitments instead of handshakes. We dig into nervous system skills—breathing, grounding, pacing, boundaries—and explain why they only stick inside supportive systems. If you care about first responder wellness, leadership development, and building resilient teams that last, these lessons are for you.If this resonates, follow the show, share it with your crew, and leave a review so more first responders can find it. And make sure to be back for part 2 in the next episode.You can reach Renae on several platforms to discuss this episode and her program.

There comes a moment when life as we know it starts to fall apart — not to destroy us, but to guide us back to who we're meant to be. Burnout, loss, and uncertainty can become the very things that wake us up to a deeper sense of purpose and peace. This episode is about what happens when we stop running from the unraveling and start trusting the transformation waiting on the other side. In this heartfelt conversation, April sits down with Anna Girgan, transformational mindset and leadership coach and founder of Epiphanies Coaching. Anna opens up about leaving a high-powered corporate career, navigating deep personal loss, and finding her way back to faith and freedom through radical surrender. Her story is a beautiful reminder that healing and purpose often begin where certainty ends. Listen in as Anna shares with us: How burnout became the turning point that led Anna to rediscover herself The powerful moment she heard God's voice — and what it took to follow that calling Lessons from her solo cross-country road trip that turned into a journey of healing and faith How loss, grief, and surrender shaped her resilience and renewed her spirit The divine inspiration behind Epiphanies Coaching and her Epiphanies Journal on money mindset Why owning her story and sharing it publicly became a pathway to freedom How she now helps other women heal, align, and live abundantly through her transformational retreats Anna's story reminds us that sometimes life has to break us open before it can build us anew. When we surrender our plans and choose trust over fear, we create space for grace to do its work.

Back when smart-phones were just beginning to saturate the market, I distinctly remember thinking that one of the best features they had to offer was 'Notifications'. Now, of course we'd had text-message notifications for year, but now notifications could come from an almost infinite number of sources. Emails could be read without even unlocking your phone. Health apps could gently nudge us to stand up five minutes at a time. The possibilities seemed endless, but little did we all know at the time how quickly that connectedness would lead to burnout. The same is true in an attorney-client relationship.My guest this week captures this struggle in her newest book, writing, “the way I practiced law had become too emotionally overwhelming [...] but in hindsight, it's a wonder I didn't burnout sooner.”Cindy Rendon is an Attorney specializing in Family Law and Personal Injury matters & the author of, "Judge Me Not: An Attorney's Journey from Burnout to Recovery"Having practiced in both the public and private sectors, in 2012 Cindy would found her own Firm, and while her practice would thrive in the coming decade, Cindy would struggle to balance her desire to help her clients with a need to take care of herself. On this week's episode, she shares her journey & the wisdom gained along the way. Enjoy the show!

Given the high stakes involved (and the desire to provide high-quality service) when working with clients, it can be tempting for financial advisors to lean into perfectionist tendencies. However, doing so can sometimes lead to overwork and potentially burnout, particularly as a firm grows over time. Lisa Brown is the President of Greenwood Gearhart, an RIA based in Fayetteville, Arkansas, managing $1.8 billion in AUM for 1,070 households. In this episode, Lisa shares how her firm's early culture of “urgent perfectionism” led to overwork amongst firm leaders and team members alike, and why she developed a new leadership mantra: “calm excellence.“ Listen in as we talk about how Greenwood Gearhart redesigned workflows to reduce team burnout, eliminated meetings and ensured those that remained focused on high-leverage activities, and created the conditions for sustainable growth—for clients, teams, and firm leaders alike.

How do you push back against the “overqualified” label in interviews when you're an experienced leader? The job search is daunting today, to say the least, and when you're going in with a decade or more of experience, it can be a real confidence-killer, too. Loren Greiff is the founder of PortfolioRocket. She directs her wealth of experience as a recruiter and advertiser to ending “career victimization by elevating, accelerating, and celebrating one executive over 40 at a time.” We talk about how those with significant career experience can reframe and reclaim the job search experience. Shift your job search mindset to rise in the recruitment ranks:How to transition from a passive to an active application approach;Honing in on and clearly explaining your unique unfair advantage;What interviewers actually mean when they say you're “overqualified”;What to stop doing before and during your interviews to really set yourself apart.Related Links:Episode 523, What Our 2025 Community Survey Reveals About Women, Work, and Burnout - https://www.bossedup.org/podcast/episode523Work with Loren - https://www.portfoliorocket.com/Connect with Loren - https://www.linkedin.com/in/lorengreiff/Listen to the “Career Blast in a Half” podcast - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/career-blast-in-a-half/id1670977528Download the “Unlock the Hidden Job Market” ebook - https://programs.portfoliorocket.com/unlock-websiteHIRED: a job search accelerator video course - https://www.bossedup.org/hired/Bossed Up Courage Community - https://www.facebook.com/groups/927776673968737/Bossed Up LinkedIn Group - https://www.linkedin.com/groups/7071888/ Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this episode of Lessons from a Quitter, we dive into the often-overlooked emotional side of career change—grief. When we outgrow an identity, a job, or a dream, it's not just a pivot; it's a loss. I'm joined by grief coach Laverne McKinnon to unpack how letting go of who we thought we'd be can open the door to who we're becoming. We explore why it's essential to honor our grief rather than rush past it, how to rebuild self-trust, and how embracing the messy middle can lead to a more authentic, fulfilling next chapter in your life and career.
How do we keep our creative edge—and ourselves—intact while navigating constant demands, distractions, and emotional turbulence? In this episode, we explore two distinct yet overlapping paths to real impact and creative resilience.We first sit down with Robert Glazer, best-selling author of The Compass Within, who demystifies the role of core values as more than just aspirational words—they're non-negotiable principles that serve as a compass for decision making, relationships, and leadership. We discuss how to identify actionable, clarifying values, why supposed “values” like “family” often hide deeper principles, and how lack of alignment between values and life leads to burnout and stagnation. Glazer shares his “big three” most life-defining decisions and what happens when our work, partners, or communities are out of sync with who we really are.Next, we're joined by Josh Pais, veteran actor and creator of Committed Impulse, whose new book Lose Your Mind offers a radical take on performance and presence. Pais reveals how reframing so-called “negative” emotions like anxiety and nervousness—as simply energy—transforms dread into creative fuel. He walks us through practical access points to presence, explains why emotion labeling sabotages creativity, and shares tools for cultivating the embodied awareness needed to consistently put ourselves on the line, whether the audience is one person or a thousand.Together, these conversations serve up a roadmap for navigating modern creative pressures with clarity, energy, and authenticity.Five Key Learnings from This Episode:Core values aren't beliefs—they're actionable, non-negotiable principles that guide behavior and decisions across every area of life and work.Naming surface-level values like “family” isn't enough—clarity comes from articulating how those values show up as decisions and actions, both personally and professionally.Burnout is often rooted not in workload, but in living incongruently with our core values, which drains energy and leads to fragmentation or eventual crisis.Emotions like fear or nervousness are not “bad”—they're simply sensations, or energy, that, when accepted and embodied, can be used as creative fuel rather than barriers.Authenticity is grounded in presence and congruence: anchoring to core values provides direction, while welcoming our emotional experience gives us the fuel to show up bravely and perform at our best.Get full interviews and bonus content for free!

On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, guest host Aanya talks with innovation coach and life-design expert Ibeth Ayala, author of No Risk, No Fun and From the Ground Up. This conversation cuts through buzzwords to show how real innovation begins with self-honesty, not strategy decks. Ibeth unpacks her Connect → Create → Try framework, how to spot rising stress before burnout, and why “permission to fail” accelerates progress in careers and companies—especially in legacy industries like insurance. If you're navigating exhaustion, change, or a high-stakes role, this episode offers a direct path to clarity, creativity, and sustainable action. About the Guest : Ibeth Ayala is an innovation coach, life-design expert, and internationally best-selling author. After a personal reset in her 20s, she's spent years guiding leaders and teams to shift from burnout to bold creativity, building innovation capacity across sectors from insurance to aviation. Key Takeaways: Innovation is an inner game first. External tactics don't land without personal clarity on needs, priorities, and values. Burnout ≠ only about work. Life stress compounds; address the whole system—relationships, health, money, career—rather than a single silo. Use the 3-step loop:Connect (self-check: what do I need?), Create (options, reframes), Try (small experiments to validate). Catch stress early. Rate stress 1–10 and intervene sooner; prevention beats recovery. Drop inherited beliefs. Question norms like “marriage/work is supposed to be hard” and choose what actually serves your life design. Permission to fail—fast. In teams, name failure as expected learning. The sooner you see what doesn't work, the faster you progress. Risk drives momentum. No risk, no fun: calibrated risks unlock creativity and engagement, especially in traditional sectors. Context matters. Diets, routines, and advice are abstractions until personalized to age, health, history, and goals. Design your “ground.” Clear the old (assumptions, limits) before planting new habits—like prepping soil before a garden. Sustainable innovation = ongoing tuning. You don't need to hit rock bottom; build awareness and adjust before crisis.

In this conversation, Phil Brown and Jimmy Burroughes delve into the critical issue of burnout in the workplace, exploring its definitions, symptoms, personal experiences, and the broader implications for organizations. They discuss the alarming statistics surrounding employee engagement and burnout, emphasizing the need for effective strategies to combat these issues. Jimmy shares his personal journey through burnout and the lessons learned, while also providing actionable advice for leaders and organizations to foster a healthier work environment. The conversation highlights the importance of understanding burnout not just as an individual issue, but as a systemic challenge that affects overall organizational health and productivity. Burnout is defined by the imbalance between expectations and ability. Key symptoms of burnout include anxiety, isolation, and a lack of care. Many high achievers are at risk of burnout due to their commitment. The workplace has become more demanding, leading to increased burnout rates. Effective communication and role clarity are essential in preventing burnout. Leaders must model healthy boundaries and the ability to say no. Creating headspace is crucial for reflection and prioritization. Simplifying processes can help teams work more effectively. Reducing burnout can significantly enhance productivity and engagement. Organizations must recognize the financial implications of burnout.

Ask Me How I Know: Multifamily Investor Stories of Struggle to Success
Burnout recovery starts with identity. If success feels empty or you fear it's too late to grow, this episode reveals why expansion isn't arrogance—it's alignment. Discover the root-level recalibration that restores clarity and courage.Do you ever wonder if it's too late to make a change—or fear you'll be too much if you step into the expansion you feel called to? High-capacity humans often hit this hidden ceiling, not in opportunity, but in permission.This episode of The Recalibration speaks directly into that quiet inner dialogue: Did I miss my window? Who am I to do this? Drawing on the story of Colonel Sanders, who franchised Kentucky Fried Chicken at 65 after more than a thousand rejections, Julie Holly reframes the cultural script of “too late.”You'll discover how Identity-Level Recalibration (ILR) dismantles outdated roles like Prover, Performer, Provider, and Perfectionist—the very identities that keep leaders stuck in role confusion, decision fatigue, and spiritual exhaustion. Neuroscience confirms what faith reveals: when you recalibrate identity, the nervous system learns that newness doesn't equal danger—it equals alignment. That's when expansion shifts from fear to fruit.Unlike surface-level productivity tactics or mindset hacks, ILR is the root-level recalibration that makes every other tool effective. Expansion isn't about proving your worth; it's about receiving the permission that was already yours—and realizing the cost of staying small is too high, not just for you but for those you're called to serve.Today's Micro RecalibrationWhere have I been telling myself it's too late to grow?What if the opposite is true—that right now is exactly on time?As a leader, how might my willingness to expand unlock permission for those around me?If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

Scaling is glorified in our culture. In early childhood education, that often means opening more schools, adding more classrooms, and constantly chasing “what's next.” But is that the only way to define success?In this episode of the Schools of Excellence Podcast, Chanie Wilschanski sits down with Latrice Crawford, known as The Child Care Chick, to talk about the overlooked power of scaling with one location. Latrice shares how she built Kidsville Learning Academy into a multimillion-dollar school that has sustained for 18 years without expanding into multiple sites.This conversation dives into the foundation of sustainable leadership: mindset, systems, culture, and defining what's truly “enough.” You'll hear Latrice's powerful story of burnout and breakthrough, how she shifted from operator to CEO, and why her definition of success is rooted in peace, values, and sustainability.If you've ever felt the pressure to open “just one more” location, or you're struggling to sustain the school you already have, this episode will show you another path to growth—one rooted in clarity, culture, and deep alignment.What You'll Learn in This Episode:Why scaling doesn't have to mean opening more schoolsThe foundation school leaders often skip—and why it leads to burnoutThe mindset shift from operator to CEOHow to invest in your team so they sustain without you holding everythingWhy defining “enough” is critical to long-term successHow to filter opportunities through your values and visionKey InsightsSustainability is scale. Long-term thriving in one school can build wealth, culture, and community impact.Foundations matter. Hustle and charisma cannot replace systems, rhythms, and leadership infrastructure.Enough is a filter. Defining what is “enough” keeps you aligned when opportunities (and distractions) come knocking.Your health and peace are part of the equation. Burnout is not the price of success.Memorable Quotes“Scaling isn't about adding more schools—it's about sustaining the one you already have.” – Latrice Crawford“Enough is not a finish line. It's a feeling of integrity.” – Chanie Wilschanski“Don't fear if your staff leave after you invest in them. Fear what happens if they stay and you never do.” – Latrice CrawfordWhy This Matters for School LeadersHelps leaders redefine success beyond growth at all costsProtects culture, peace, and sustainability by focusing on depth, not constant expansionEmpowers leaders to filter opportunities through values instead of external pressureProvides a model for scaling to millions with one schoolResources & Next StepsDefine your personal and leadership definition of “enough”Audit your school's foundations: Are you building on systems, or on hustle?Share this episode with a fellow school leader wrestling with pressure to expandReady to stop holding everything together alone?

Burnout Is NOT a Agile Problem - It Is A Planning ProblemI remember a sprint planning meeting a few months ago, and I knew the sprint was doomed before it even started. Not because of bugs or blockers — those we could handle. It was the way everyone looked during planning: like we were gearing up for a marathon we hadn't trained for.How to connect with AgileDad:- [website] https://www.agiledad.com/- [instagram] https://www.instagram.com/agile_coach/- [facebook] https://www.facebook.com/RealAgileDad/- [Linkedin] https://www.linkedin.com/in/leehenson/
We often ignore our mental health until it's too late.Statistics show that millions delay seeking help for years - with many receiving a diagnosis more than a year after symptoms first appear. The cost isn't just personal; the global toll of untreated mental illness reaches into the billions each year through healthcare expenses and lost productivity.In this episode, Jonathan Kemp shares his lifelong journey through bipolar disorder, depression, and dyslexia, and how decades of struggle led him to redefine what peace and success actually meant to him. We discuss the stigma around therapy and medication, why awareness alone isn't enough, and how small daily habits and connection can completely transform mental well-being.TOPICS:Overcoming bipolar disorder, depression, and dyslexiaRedefining success and finding peace after burnoutBreaking stigma around therapy, medication, and men's mental healthMORE FROM NICK:Book a FREE call here to learn about the Move Your Mind Program: https://tinyurl.com/yc3zmu35Find all links here: https://nickbracks.start.page/Sign up to the website: nickbracks.comConnect with Nick on Instagram, Twitter & LinkedInMORE FROM JONATHAN: https://www.instagram.com/jonathankemplondon/ Hosted on Acast.

Ask Me How I Know: Multifamily Investor Stories of Struggle to Success
Burnout recovery starts with identity, not output. In this episode, discover how striving keeps leaders exhausted — and why peace-led presence restores clarity, impact, and trust.Striving feels normal when you've been carrying the weight for a long time. But let's name it: striving is when your worth is tied to your output. It's when rest feels irresponsible, when every “yes” is about proving you can handle more, and when quiet moments feel unsafe because you're so used to producing. The result? Burnout, decision fatigue, and the hollow exhaustion of success that doesn't satisfy.In today's Sunday episode of The Recalibration, we're anchoring this week's theme — Performance vs. Presence — in faith. Scripture reminds us that life together was designed to be rooted in connection and belonging, not performance. Consider Jeroboam: a diligent worker elevated to leadership by Solomon and promised the throne by God. But instead of resting in God's promise, he turned to people-pleasing and idol-making — a path that fractured a kingdom. Contrast that with King Hezekiah, who rooted himself in trust. When Assyria threatened destruction, he didn't scramble to perform or strategize — he tore his clothes, went into the temple, and trusted God. Scripture says, “The Lord was with him, and Hezekiah was successful in everything” (2 Kings 18:7).Henri Nouwen, priest, professor, and writer — teaching at Harvard Divinity School before leaving academia to live among those with disabilities — embodied this same principle. His leadership wasn't about force or striving. It was rooted in beloved identity, expressed through presence. His quiet authority continues to shape leaders who long for more than performance-driven impact.The pattern is simple but profound: Identity → Alignment → Impact. But most leaders flip it, chasing impact first and hoping peace will follow. Today we'll unpack how to spot that flipped pattern, why it keeps your nervous system braced, and how Identity-Level Recalibration restores true alignment. This isn't another mindset tactic. It's the root-level recalibration that makes every other tool effective — because when your identity is anchored, your leadership flows from peace instead of pressure.Today's Micro Recalibration: Before any output today, take 3 minutes of stillness and breathe: “I am already held. Therefore, I can lead unhurried.” For leaders, extend this: before making decisions, slow your breath and remind yourself — presence carries more weight than pressure.If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

Certified coach Michael Carlini discusses his article "Why physicians with ADHD are burning out." Michael explains how high-IQ physicians often mask their ADHD symptoms through hyper-organization, perfectionism, and hyperfocus, which allows them to succeed professionally but takes an immense internal toll. He outlines how misdiagnosis, overcompensation, and lack of accommodations contribute to severe burnout, strained relationships, and declining well-being. Michael also highlights solutions, including increasing awareness of ADHD's diverse presentations, encouraging comprehensive assessments, and building supportive, neurodiversity-affirming environments. Listeners will take away strategies to recognize hidden ADHD in high-achieving physicians and insights on fostering resilience in the medical profession.

Ask Me How I Know: Multifamily Investor Stories of Struggle to Success
Burnout recovery isn't about pushing harder. Discover how gentleness restores leadership rhythm, builds trust, and helps high-capacity humans lead from presence, not pressure.Burnout recovery often gets framed as rest, vacations, or temporary relief. But for high-capacity humans, the real restoration comes from a deeper source: gentleness.In this episode of The Recalibration, Julie Holly unpacks why gentleness is not laziness, but true leadership strength. Drawing from the life and influence of 19th-century poet-preacher George MacDonald, Julie explores how gentleness became a force that reshaped culture, awakened imagination, and restored weary souls. MacDonald's leadership reminds us: real authority flows from embodying peace, not pressing harder.You'll also see how burnout, decision fatigue, and role confusion are often symptoms of identity drift — when your nervous system stays braced and you lead from performance instead of presence. This is where Identity-Level Recalibration (ILR) makes the difference. ILR isn't another mindset tactic or productivity hack. It's the root-level shift that rewrites your story so every decision, boundary, and leadership rhythm flows from alignment with who you truly are.Today's conversation gets practical too. You'll learn how to spot the difference between leading from bracing and leading from gentleness — and why this shift restores both you and those you influence.Micro Recalibration: Schedule 3 ninety-second resets today. Breathe. Drop your shoulders. Soften your jaw. Release the outcome.For leaders: bring this into your team or family. Try starting a meeting or mealtime with one slow breath together. You'll be amazed at how the atmosphere shifts.Because gentleness isn't weakness. It's leadership that heals instead of drains.If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, Avik sits down with Jordan Calgeron—2x exited founder and President of StratDev—to explore the often-overlooked mental and emotional journey of young entrepreneurs. From building his first company in college to turning down 11 acquisition offers in a single year, Jordan reveals the unseen pressures of early success, including burnout, isolation, and the struggle to find balance. He also shares personal strategies on setting boundaries, protecting energy, and choosing growth with integrity over fast exits. About the Guest:Jordan Calgeron is a serial entrepreneur and the current President of StratDev, a Top 100 US marketing firm. He's built and sold companies by age 26, delivered TEDx talks, and even launched a wine brand. Beyond business, Jordan is committed to mental resilience, long-term sustainability, and redefining what success looks like in the startup world. Key Takeaways: Starting young can lead to burnout fast—Jordan worked 20-hour days during college, often sacrificing social life and sleep. True vacations and time-blocking are essential tools Jordan uses to avoid mental collapse. He turned down 11 acquisition offers in 2023 to play the long game—and the decision paid off. Quick decision-making and the ability to course-correct are more valuable than intelligence in entrepreneurship. Building a business shouldn't come at the cost of losing yourself—find time to recalibrate, reconnect, and reflect.
