What does it really mean to educate your community while running a thriving pet care business? Miguel Rodriguez of City Dog Pack returns to share how he balances content creation, training, boarding, and walking services—while staying grounded in his values. He opens up about recognizing the value of his time, setting clear policies, and learning to say "no" without guilt. Miguel also explains his shift toward video and course-based learning, and how gratitude reshaped his approach after COVID-19. This conversation is a powerful reminder that being an educator starts with empathy, boundaries, and knowing your worth. Main topics: Educating clients through social media Balancing business with personal life Setting and enforcing client policies Creating content with real-world value Recognizing and managing burnout Main Takeaway: "I'm so lucky to even be burnt out." That mindset shift changed everything for Miguel Rodriguez of City Dog Pack. Burnout used to feel like failure—until he reframed it as a sign of demand, trust, and impact. Now, when exhaustion creeps in, he remembers the days he waited by the phone, hoping for one client call. If you're tired from helping others, it might just mean you're doing something right. Just don't forget to take care of yourself too—gratitude and boundaries can go a long way. About our guest: Miguel Rodriguez is the founder of City Dog Pack, a dog training, walking, and boarding business based in New York City. With over 15 years of experience, Miguel blends practical dog behavior knowledge with a deep commitment to client education and community support. He publishes the "Everything Dog" newsletter on Substack and is expanding into YouTube and TikTok to share even more free and accessible content. A former Marine and lifelong educator, Miguel is passionate about helping people build better lives with their pets. His work emphasizes empathy, gratitude, and practical advice for real-world dog challenges.

Send us a textDr. Arianna Molloy, author of "Healthy Calling: From Toxic Burnout to Sustainable Work," shares on "calling burnout" and why it hurts more than standard exhaustion. Regular burnout says, "I don't like what I'm doing anymore." Calling burnout says, "I don't know who I am anymore." To find our way back, she offers a practical, research-backed posture of healthy humility: know your strengths and weaknesses without being ruled by either; live as a learner who isn't threatened by not knowing; and practice the capacity to walk away, rest, and remember you're not God. This is not self-erasure. It's a return to sanity, a way to steward gifts without becoming indispensable to them.We also explore communication as a healing balm for homes and teams. Truthful, kind, and clear messages—spoken, written, and nonverbal—repair trust faster than endless clarification by text. Simple rhythms like visual voice messages, shared gratitude at the table, and sabbath touchpoints keep relationships tender and resilient. Along the way, gratitude emerges as humility in action: a daily reorientation that dissolves cynicism and turns ordinary messes into moments of meaning.If you're a mom, leader, creative, or caregiver wondering how to serve without losing yourself, this conversation offers a grounded path forward.

In your 30s, everything changes, and your fitness plan should too. In this episode of The Neuro Experience, I sit down with Sam Christine, mom of two, marathoner, macro coach, and creator of the EMPWR app, to unpack what actually works for women when fat loss stalls, hormones crash, and burnout creeps in. After pushing her body too far during marathon training, Sam lost her period for 13 months. The cause? Undereating, overstressing, and overtraining, all while juggling career, motherhood, and a crumbling marriage. Now, she's helping thousands of women rebuild their health from the inside out. About Sam: Samantha Christine is a nutritionist, certified trainer, and founder of EMPWR by Sam—a fitness app helping women train smarter, fuel better, and build lasting strength.

Feeling like you're running on empty, no matter how hard you try to have it all together? Fresh from an inspiring BOLD retreat in Asheville, NC, today I'll share the real reason high-achieving women like us keep slipping back into burnout, even after we swear we've got it handled. It's not about willpower or your to-do list. Burnout is actually a biological loop that our bodies get stuck in, especially when the pace never seems to let up. I'll walk you through the hidden mental loads we carry and why recovery needs to be built into our rhythm, not just crammed in when we're desperate for a break. You'll hear my top three strategies for breaking free from the burnout cycle and creating a life with energy, joy, and true freedom. This episode is your invitation to a new chapter, to make room for brilliance—and finally normalize rest, reclaim your rhythm, and enjoy what you're working so hard to build! Show Highlights: Healing with BOLD coaching group retreats. [00:51] Understand the pattern of the burnout backslide.  [01:21] How burnout is biological, not a weakness. [03:27] The WHO definition of burnout and related data. [04:55] A powerful self-assessment guide for burnout. [05:52] Invisible mental and emotional overload. [06:32] The importance of energy audits to track depletion. [08:56] Why recovery must be rhythmic, not reactive. [09:39] The power of short breaks and scheduled rest.

Special Guest Stefanie Carlstedt stefcarlstedt.com/hdreport   Welcome back to another episode of Podcast Profits Unleashed! I'm your host, Karen Roberts — and in today's conversation, we're diving deep into a topic that's changing the way entrepreneurs approach growth and success: Human Design. My guest, Stefanie Carlstedt, helps heart-led entrepreneurs build aligned, sustainable businesses by using human design to tailor their marketing, sales, and strategy to who they truly are. After years of burnout and loss, Stefanie found Human Design and realized that success isn't about following every “guru” system — it's about honoring your unique blueprint. In this powerful conversation, we explore how aligning your business with your natural energy can eliminate burnout, boost creativity, and create results that actually feel good. Stefanie shares how understanding your Human Design type reveals your most natural way of communicating, attracting clients, and making decisions. I loved how she explained that burnout doesn't come from doing too much — it comes from doing things that aren't aligned with who you are. When you align your actions with your design, everything flows more easily. We also talked about the “new era of individuality” — where authenticity and self-trust will define success. In a world full of noise, Stefanie believes the entrepreneurs who thrive will be those who deeply know themselves and build their businesses around that awareness.   Key Takeaways (from me as the host): ✨ Success comes when you stop following everyone else's blueprint and start trusting your own. ✨ Burnout is a symptom of misalignment, not overwork. ✨ Understanding your Human Design helps you market, sell, and serve in a way that feels natural. ✨ Comparison fades when you embrace your unique purpose. ✨ Authenticity is the new currency in business.  

On today's episode of The Wholesome Fertility Podcast, I'm joined by Rose McKenzie, fertility awareness educator and clinician trainer at Mira, to explore a simpler, smarter way to track your cycle, without the stress of daily temperature checks. We dive into how continuous hormone monitoring can reveal what's really happening in your body each month, why a single lab test can miss crucial shifts in your hormones, and how lifestyle factors like sleep, stress, and nutrition affect ovulation. Rose breaks down the science behind Mira's lab-grade hormone tracking technology and shares how it's helping women and practitioners move beyond guesswork to truly understand their cycles. If you've ever felt overwhelmed by charting, or you're ready to move past "BBT burnout," this conversation will help you see your hormones in a whole new way. Key Takeaways: Tired of charting every morning? Discover a stress-free way to confirm ovulation. Learn why LH strips only tell part of the story, and what you're really missing. See how Mira's lab-grade tech brings clarity to hormone tracking from home. Find out how stress, sleep, and nutrition can delay or disrupt ovulation. Learn why continuous data gives a clearer picture than one-time lab tests. Understand how your insulin sensitivity shifts across your cycle (and how that affects cravings). Get empowered to interpret your hormone data and take control of your fertility journey. Sponsored by MIRA; opinions are our own. Guest Bio: As the Clinical Manager at Mira, Rose assists healthcare professionals and providers to successfully use Mira with their patients. Through webinars, case reports, and one-on-one assistance she educates providers to effectively and confidently implement hormone monitoring in their practices.

For the first time, Samantha is peeling back the layers of her "put together" persona to share a raw, unfiltered, and deeply vulnerable update on what's really been going on in her life and business. This isn't a formal lesson; it's an intimate conversation about the messy middle of leadership.Samantha opens up about her long-term battle with burnout, the high achiever's curse of never stopping to celebrate, and the frustrating process of overthinking and losing self-trust.

Katie and Jess share about the special bond they have and how Katie, who was once a domineering big sister when they were kids, now has a "mamma bear" defensiveness toward anyone who talks negatively about Jess on social media. Birthed out of a very painful season for their family, Jess just released her newest book, What Comes Next: 40 Days of Healing After Heartbreak, Burnout, or Brokenness.

Guest: Ben F'n Mollin — celebrity hairdresser turned endurance athlete, suicide prevention specialist, and author of Deconstructed: Kill the Thing That's Killing You.Corey sits down with longtime friend and industry legend Ben F'n Mollin for a raw, unfiltered conversation about burning down everything that was killing him — and rebuilding a life grounded in truth, grit, and miles.From Bravo's Shear Genius to rockstar educator status, Ben lived the dream: fame, travel, and recognition. But behind it was debt, addiction, and a breaking point that almost ended his life on April 1, 2018. Instead, he chose to deconstruct everything — walking away from the salon, the brands, and the spotlight to rediscover himself through endurance sports and deep inner work.Now a punk-rock, Cali-sober, non-practicing Jew who turned survival into service, Ben shares how he became an Ironman, an ultramarathoner, and a suicide prevention speaker — pacing others on their path back to purpose.From Shear Genius to the Edge: What overnight fame feels like and why success can be just as dangerous as failure.Breaking Point: The moment Ben told his wife he planned to end his life — and how speaking up saved him.The Deconstruction Process: How he “killed” his career instead of himself and rebuilt from silence, sobriety, and stillness.Movement as Medicine: How walking became running, which became Ironman Mont-Tremblant and eventually 100+ mile ultramarathons.Mindset of a Warrior: Lessons from endurance racing that mirror survival, discipline, and recovery.From Burnout to Purpose: Why Ben now helps others confront their demons through The Ben Mollin Project and public speaking.Redemption at 50: Returning to the Sedona Canyon 125 in 2025, the race that once broke him — and finishing it in spiritual triumph.“Don't kill yourself — kill the thing that's killing you.”“When it gets hard, that's when you have to create.”“Success can be just as dangerous as failure.”“Discomfort isn't pain — it's growth.”

I'm tackling a massive challenge today: burnout. While the standard advice usually involves working less, I want to show you a practical dimension of burnout you have more control over, focusing on increasing your agency and autonomy to manage chronic workplace stress more effectively. Burnout is classified by the ICD-11 as a syndrome resulting from chronic workplace stress that has not been successfully managed.This episode includes practical advice for understanding and addressing burnout by shifting focus from reducing work volume to increasing control and resources.Understand the three dimensions of burnout as classified by the ICD-11: feelings of energy depletion or exhaustion, increased mental distance/negativity toward the job, and reduced professional efficacy.Discover why the amount of time you work is not a direct input to burnout, meaning working less is often impractical and may not solve the underlying issue.Learn the core philosophy for addressing burnout: In order to control stress, provide control (meaning agency and autonomy).Explore why stress is directly correlated to the ratio of demands placed on you versus the resources (including decision-making power, training, and tooling) you have to meet those demands.I'll give you practical ways to approach your manager to secure necessary resources, training, or mentoring to improve your professional efficacy and reduce job negativity.

In this episode I discuss Burnout and Generational Trauma. I go on to talk about the company you keep and Adrenaline fueled Infidelity. Thank you all for being patient with me while I took a much needed six month break.

What if your ‘success' is actually what's draining your power?  For years, I believed my worth was measured by how much I could give, achieve, and manage. I wore the cape, smiled through the fatigue, and convinced everyone—including myself—that I was fine. But beneath that polished performance lived a quiet truth: I was burning out while trying to be everything for everyone. In this episode, I share what it really takes to break free from high-functioning burnout—the kind that hides behind success. Together, we'll explore how slowing down isn't losing ground, why rest is the most radical form of self-trust, and how to finally stop performing your life and start living it.   What we explore: How high-functioning burnout disguises itself as competence The emotional cost of over-giving and people-pleasing Three powerful shifts to release the Superwoman identity Why rest, stillness, and softness are essential to true strength How to return to your essence—without the cape If you're ready to step out of performance mode and into presence, visit nancylevin.com to explore courses, coaching, and resources to help you come home to yourself.   Connect with me: Newsletternancylevin.comInstagramFacebook

We live in a world that never seems to slow down. Deadlines, family demands, and constant notifications all compete for our attention.But what if God designed rest—not just work—as being essential to our flourishing? Today, we're talking with Tom Nelson about the Sabbath, why it matters, and how it can transform the way we live and trust God.Dr. Tom Nelson is the President of Made to Flourish and has served as the Senior Pastor of Christ Community Church, a multi-site congregation across Kansas City, for over 30 years. He is also the author of Why Your Work Matters: How God Uses Our Everyday Vocations to Transform Us, Our Neighbors, and the World.God's Design for Both Work and RestFrom the very first pages of Scripture, we see that God's creation design includes both work and rest. These are not competing ideas but complementary rhythms woven into what it means to bear God's image. Yet in our culture, it's easy to emphasize one and neglect the other. We celebrate hard work—and rightly so—but often ignore the equally important gift of rest.Genesis 2 begins not with human work, but with divine rest. “By the seventh day God had finished the work he had been doing; so on the seventh day he rested” (Genesis 2:2). God didn't rest because He was weary. He rested to delight in His creation and to model for us a rhythm of life that mirrors His own.Sabbath is a gift. It's not an obstacle to productivity but an invitation to communion with our Creator. From the Garden of Eden to the Ten Commandments, from Jesus' ministry to the promise of the new creation, the thread of Sabbath runs through the entire story of Scripture.When we honor that rhythm—six days of labor and one day of holy rest—we experience an echo of Eden and a foretaste of eternity, when we will work and rest in perfect harmony with God.Rediscovering Sabbath as a GiftGod designed us for a relationship with Himself and with one another. Sabbath helps us recalibrate those relationships. It reorders our hearts around love, not accomplishment. The Triune God invites us to rest so that our hearts might be re-centered on intimacy with Him rather than on our own achievements.That's what Sabbath is really about: not simply stopping our work, but remembering who sustains it. It reminds us that the primary calling of our lives is not to do for God, but to be with God.For many of us, we may see Sabbath as optional—something good in theory but impossible in practice. However, neglecting rest affects our spiritual formation, our relationships, and even our physical and emotional health.Sabbath is not a duty; it's a grace. It's not legalism; it's life. Sabbath is God's way of teaching us to steward not just our resources, but our time. We often speak of stewarding our time, talent, and treasure, yet forget that time itself is one of God's greatest gifts.We may think of Sabbath as “rest from work,” but we should really view it as “work from rest.” Our week should flow out of the rest we receive—not the other way around.Guarding Against the Idolatry of WorkOur work matters deeply to God. But like all good things, it can become disordered. When we place our identity, meaning, or security in what we accomplish, work becomes an idol. Sabbath protects us from that idolatry.By resting, we declare that God—not our productivity—sustains the world. Sabbath breaks the cycle of self-reliance and teaches us to trust the One who never sleeps. It frees us to delight in beauty, to nurture relationships, and to experience renewal in body and soul.Many people say, “That sounds wonderful, but you don't know my schedule.” Between raising children, leading organizations, and building businesses, the idea of a day of rest can feel unrealistic.But Sabbath is not a test of devotion—it's an act of grace. Jesus said, “The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath” (Mark 2:27). God gives us this rhythm for our good. So start small. Begin with an afternoon. Disconnect from technology. Step away from the endless noise and hurry. Give your soul permission to breathe.As you do, you'll find that rest becomes not a luxury, but a necessity. You'll also discover that Sabbath rhythms bear witness to a watching world—an act of quiet evangelism declaring that our trust is in God's provision, not our own effort.A Practical Picture of SabbathFor many, Sunday naturally serves as a Sabbath—a day centered on corporate worship and community. Begin the day in God's Word. Gather with your church family to worship and remember the gospel. Then build the rest of the day around delight: time with loved ones, enjoying nature, sharing meals, or simply slowing down.Sabbath isn't about inactivity; it's about being present—to God, to others, and to the world He made. It's a day of delight, not productivity—a time to remember that we are human beings, not human doings.Without Sabbath, those we love often receive only our leftovers—whatever energy remains after six days of striving. But when rest becomes part of our rhythm, our relationships deepen. We offer the people closest to us not exhaustion, but joy.Sadly, when people face burnout or relational breakdown, Sabbath is almost always missing. Rest is essential to wholeness.Ultimately, Sabbath points us to Jesus Himself—the Lord of the Sabbath. He invites us, “Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest” (Matthew 11:28). That invitation is not just for a day each week—it's for every day of our lives.When we rest, we remember that the world is not upheld by our effort but by His grace. True rest is not found in the absence of work but in the presence of Christ.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:Our new community ministry is only about 25% funded right now, but we'd really like to launch it in a biblically sound way. As a leadership team, how should we move forward with that?A debt settlement counselor is offering to settle $36,000 of debt for $29,000, with monthly payments of $575 over 52 months. That adds up to just $29,000 total.

Welcome to another episode of the Sustainable Clinical Medicine Podcast! In this episode, Dr. Sarah Smith is joined by Dr. Archana Shrestha—an emergency physician, certified coach, author, and founder of the Mama Doc School and Physician Wellness Solutions. Together, they dive deep into the journey of physician burnout, particularly from the perspective of emergency medicine. Dr. Shrestha shares her personal story of navigating the double burden of clinical and parental burnout, and how she transformed her approach to wellness by addressing not just physical exhaustion, but also the crucial mental and emotional components. Listeners will hear about practical strategies for reclaiming energy, building emotional resilience, and making time for life outside of medicine. Dr. Shrestha opens up about the challenges women in medicine face, the importance of self-stewardship, and why addressing the dread around tasks like charting can have far-reaching impacts on personal health and quality of life. Whether you're looking to overcome burnout, manage stress eating, or simply feel more fulfilled in your medical career, this episode is packed with insightful advice and real-life inspiration for making clinical practice more sustainable. Here are 3 key takeaways from this episode: Burnout has multiple layers: It isn't just physical exhaustion. Addressing mental and emotional fatigue is just as crucial for true recovery and lasting wellness. Processing emotions is a skill, not a luxury: Dr. Shrestha details a practical method (the “H & P” approach) for health professionals to name, rate, and process difficult emotions—crucial in high-stress environments like the ER. Self-stewardship is essential: True self-care goes beyond the occasional treat; it's about reclaiming basic needs like sleep, movement, healthy food, and time for yourself—so you can give your best at work and at home. Meet Dr. Archana Shrestha: Dr. Archana Shrestha is an emergency physician, certified coach, author, and speaker who is passionate about helping physicians create lasting wellness. She is the founder and Chief Wellness Officer of Mama Docs School and Physician Wellness Solutions, where she leads programs designed to reduce burnout and help doctors reclaim their health, energy and joy in medicine.

Join our champion program: mark@themomentumcompany.comAttend a Thriving Leader event: https://www.themomentumcompany.com/thrivingleader2026Instagram: @the.momentum.companyLinkedIn: /momentum-companyThis EMERGENCY EPISODE of The Intentional Ag Leader Podcast is a candid conversation between Mark Jewell, Christine Jewell, and Jon Anderson from The Momentum Company—sparked by a growing crisis across the ag industry: burnout. After witnessing multiple leaders and clients lose relationships, energy, and clarity to the grind, the team takes a bold stand.They unpack why exhaustion and “survival mode” have become the norm, how to recognize when you've crossed into burnout, and what leaders can actually do to create healthy, high-performance cultures without sacrificing their families or sanity.Key Takeaways1. Burnout Has Become the New Normal—But It Doesn't Have to Be.Christine exposes how many leaders have normalized exhaustion and anxiety as “just part of the job.” Like a car that's always red-lined, most people are running their systems to the brink without realizing the damage being done.2. Survival Mode Is Not Success.Jon shares how too many people have set their bar at “survive well.” The Momentum standard is higher—leaders must thrive, not just cope. When burnout goes unchecked, it often leads to breakdowns in performance, relationships, and even marriage.3. Redefine What Success Looks Like.Christine challenges leaders to re-evaluate their metrics. True success isn't how many meetings or tasks you complete—it's how much peace, clarity, and meaningful connection you cultivate. Redefining success changes every decision that follows.4. Alignment Creates Capacity.Burnout doesn't only come from doing too much—it comes from doing too much of the wrong things. When leaders focus on the 20% of work that moves the mission forward, they gain energy and clarity instead of losing it.5. Audit and Adjust Constantly.Burnout prevention requires regular self-audits: Is this still working? Are our systems, meetings, and routines producing results—or just motion? Awareness and recalibration are the keys to sustained energy and performance.6. Leadership Requires Leverage.Mark and Christine share real-world coaching stories showing how delegation and clear systems aren't luxuries—they're leadership essentials. Leaders who refuse to train and release others become the bottleneck that drives burnout.7. The Daily Brief Practice.Mark introduces his “Daily Brief” ritual—a 10-minute morning email he writes to Christine that combines logistics, reflection, and gratitude. It's become a powerful grounding tool for communication, clarity, and peace at home.Notable Quotes“Most people don't even realize they're burnt out because they've normalized the pressure cooker.” — Christine Jewell“We've mistaken surviving for thriving. That's not the standard.” — Jon Anderson“Just because it's hard doesn't mean you quit—it means you've been given an opportunity to grow.” — Mark Jewell“We don't have a time management problem; we have an energy management and clarity problem.” — Christine Jewell“When you define success by how...

Ever wondered what it really takes to scale a recruitment agency from the ground up—and have the guts to walk away at the top? In this episode, Benjamin Mena sits down with Gregory Fischer, who built AMI Network to over $4M in gross margin and $1.4M EBITDA—then left it all to build a new agency his way, powered by offshoring, smarter processes, and AI.

Ein Herbstwochenende zwischen Dachschrägen, Kürbisfeldern und Existenzfragen: Basti stößt sich in Straßburg den Kopf, anredo knallt mit einem Trash-TV-Star gegen die Realität. Eine herbstlich-chaotische Folge über Kaffee, Kürbisse und Katastrophen. Der Herbst ist da, und mit ihm der kollektive Breakdown. Basti sendet diesmal live aus einem urigen Dachzimmer in Straßburg, stößt sich dort direkt den Kopf und philosophiert über Schnurrhaare und das große Bedürfnis nach Gleichgewicht im Leben. Zwischen Kopfweh, Kaffee und Kopfsteinpflaster zeigt sich: Straßburg ist schön – bis man sich an der Dachschräge verletzt. Währenddessen sitzt anredo zu Hause im trüben Köln und hat sich in die herbstliche Vollkrise getrunken: Natürlich mit Pumpkin Spice Latte für zwölf Mark im sogenannten Kürbisland. Es geht um Filterkaffee als Charaktertest, den Geruch von nassem Laub, eBay-Betrug mit einem Mann namens Jens und die Frage, ob man durch Reality-TV vielleicht doch die Welt retten kann. Außerdem: ein Rabe auf dem Bizeps, Workation im Elsass, elterliche Baustellen und Bastis Selbstoffenbarung als „absoluter Nichtsnutz“. Die beiden diskutieren, ob man eher den Reifenwechsel oder alle anderen Lebensentscheidungen delegieren sollte. Zwischen melancholischer Herbstsonne, Lichterketten-Vibes und Lebensmüdigkeit wächst die Erkenntnis: Nichts schreit lauter „Erwachsenenleben“ als eine Filterkaffee-Maschine. Eine Folge zwischen Burnout und Brühkaffee, zwischen Latte, Laub und Lebenskrise.

Die Diagnose Demenz lässt das Leben stillstehen, nichts ist mehr, wie es war. «Junge» Betroffene unter 65 trifft es besonders hart: Sie stehen noch mitten im Leben, sind berufstätig, haben Kinder. «Puls» zeigt Menschen, die sich ihrem Schicksal nicht einfach ergeben wollen. Warnzeichen von Demenz Im Keller stehen und nicht mehr wissen, weshalb. Den Schlüsselbund schon wieder verlegt. Und überhaupt: unkonzentriert, erschöpft, verstimmt, deprimiert. Situationen und Stimmungslagen, die vorkommen können und meist einfach vorübergehen. Oder steckt doch mehr dahinter? «Puls» zeigt, wann es ernst wird, wo die Grenze zur Demenz liegt und welche Warnzeichen ernst zu nehmen sind. Leben mit und trotz der Diagnose Susanne, 55, war wegen Burnout in psychiatrischer Behandlung und wurde mit der niederschmetternden Diagnose «Demenz» entlassen. Die Diagnose trifft die selbstständige Coachin mitten im Leben. Sie will sich davon aber nicht unterkriegen lassen und mit ihrem Partner ein gutes Leben führen, solange es geht. Reisen nach Mauritius und Südafrika sind noch auf der Bucket List, Delfinschwimmen in den USA bereits abgehakt. Hoffnungsträger Lecanemab Susanne ist aussergewöhnlich aktiv: täglich Fitness, Boxen, Dancing, Yoga. Sie lernt Golf und Logopädie, schreibt ein Buch. Lauter Aktivitäten, die Körper und Hirn trainieren und so den Verlauf ihrer Demenz verlangsamen sollen. Wissenschaftlich belegt ist der Effekt jedoch nicht. Anders beim Medikament Lecanemab, das seit kurzem in der EU zugelassen ist. Susanne zählt zum kleinen Teil der Demenzbetroffenen, die für eine Behandlung grundsätzlich in Frage kommt. Nun soll eine genetische Abklärung Gewissheit schaffen. Fehlende Strukturen in der Schweiz In einem Altersheim mit anderen Demenzbetroffenen leben, die teils 30 Jahre älter sind: Realität für den 58-jährigen Ali, der wie viele Demente einen enormen Bewegungsdrang hat. Das bringt Unruhe ins Heim und das Pflegepersonal an seine Grenzen. Für Entlastung sorgen Angehörige und Freunde, die Ali mehrmals pro Woche aus dem Altersheim holen und mit ihm spazieren und joggen gehen. Kein Einzelfall, denn in der Schweiz fehlt es an Einrichtungen, die auf junge Demente ausgerichtet sind. «Puls»-Chat – Fragen und Antworten zum Thema Demenz Möchten Sie mehr wissen zum Umgang mit dementen Menschen? Sind Sie verunsichert, ob ihre zunehmende Vergesslichkeit erste Anzeichen einer Demenz sein könnte? Die Fachrunde weiss am Montag von 21.00 bis 23.00 Uhr Rat – live im Chat. Fragen können vorab eingereicht werden.

On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty digs into the mental health cost of staying in a job you hate. Guest Tom Cooke—a former quantity surveyor who left corporate life after a purpose-reset—breaks down the “silent burnout” of dread, numbness, and anxiety that comes from working without meaning. You'll learn how to assess your skills, spot real problems to solve, validate a business idea while employed, and make steady, patient moves toward a purpose-led venture. About the guest  : Tom Cooke is a purpose-driven business strategist who left a stable corporate career after a sabbatical revealed that success without freedom isn't success. He now helps professionals identify their first profitable idea, validate it on the side, and design a business that aligns with their values and mental well-being. Key takeaways  : Name the problem: “Silent burnout” looks like chest heaviness at the alarm, Sunday dread, and emotional numbness even around friends and family. Purpose ≠ paycheck: A great salary can still cost peace of mind; fulfillment comes from aligned work you control. Start while employed: List strengths/skills, note problems people actually have, and find the overlap where you can help. Validate fast: Talk to potential customers, test whether your idea solves a real pain, and use feedback to refine or drop it. Don't rush the exit: You don't need to quit to begin—build on the side to reduce risk and gain clarity. Patience beats hacks: Real results take time; avoid shortcuts and focus on consistent, purposeful actions. Reframe loyalty: Companies move on quickly; protect your health, energy, and long-term goals. One next step: Identify one tiny move this week that advances your purpose (conversation, draft offer, or research call).

On this Healthy Waves episode, Avik and performance coach Glen Lubbert break down a practical framework for replacing harsh self-talk with useful language and action. You'll learn the “8 magic words” that open possibility (right now, so far, not yet, at least), how to spot exceptions to stuck patterns, and simple end-of-day prompts that shift you from guilt to progress. We cover burnout signals, building on existing wins, and a 5-minute reset you can start tonight   About the guest  : Glen Lubbert is a Division I athlete turned health innovator, certified performance and sleep & recovery coach, and founder of Stamina Lab. His solution-focused approach helps people create change by amplifying what already works.   Key takeaways: Your brain's negativity bias is normal; notice it and separate “thoughts” from “you.” Swap absolute self-talk (“I always procrastinate”) with the 8 magic words: right now, so far, not yet, at least. Keep the data, drop the drama: keep facts, soften the tone, choose the next useful step. Look for exceptions: when the problem didn't happen or was smaller—then repeat what made that possible. Track three daily signals of what worked (e.g., energy, clarity, a kind choice) to build momentum. Define “what you want instead,” then describe that future in vivid detail; your brain works toward clear targets. There are many paths to the same river: don't fixate on one “right” routine; find small, doable moves now. Burnout: first name what you want to feel instead; then recall evidence of past hard things you handled—capacity over guilt. A quick 5-minute nightly reset: 1) level breath, 2) list what moved you forward today, 3) set one boundary for tomorrow, 4) thank your body. Progress beats perfection: amplify bright spots; repeat what already works.   How to connect with the guest   Website + free guide + complimentary session: staminaLab.io (download the “8 Magic Words” PDF and book a free 20-minute coaching session)   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

In this episode, Dana is joined by Michael Levitt, founder of the Breakfast Leadership Network and self proclaimed "Chief Burnout Officer." Michael shares his personal story of being a high-achieving executive who pushed himself to the brink, working 6 AM to 11 PM seven days a week. This relentless drive led to a year of devastating consequences, including a near-fatal heart attack, job loss during the recession, and home foreclosure. He reveals how that immense pain became his greatest teacher, forcing him to recognize the dangerous red flags of burnout that so many driven entrepreneurs ignore.

Li Hongyi, Director of Open Government Products, and Jeremy Au discuss how leaders can define, measure, and sustain real performance within organizations. They unpack why clarity of purpose matters more than ambition, how to design fair and motivating systems, and how to prevent burnout in high-performing teams. Their conversation bridges lessons from public service and startups, showing how structure, accountability, and empathy build lasting excellence. 00:56 What is performance: Hongyi explains that success begins with clarity. Teams fail when they skip defining what “high-performing” means before chasing results. 03:15 Why clarity matters more than profit: In the public sector, lacking a clear anchor like profit causes teams to chase noise instead of purpose. 06:43 Designing the right metrics: He suggests tracking three to five key metrics that collectively prevent failure while balancing usability, reliability, and cost. 12:44 Communication through signposting: Hongyi shares that being explicit with intent by saying “this is advice” or “this needs to be done” reduces confusion and builds trust. 14:15 Rethinking performance reviews: Self, peer, and manager evaluations should gather information for better decisions rather than serve as political rituals. 27:00 The danger of over-promotion: Advancing too quickly can destroy confidence and create anxiety. Steady, sustainable growth builds stronger leaders. 31:00 Burnout and sustainable success: True progress comes from building skills, not just adding hours. Leaders must create space for learning and recovery.

On the financial front, Hales argues that many physicians

Burnout recovery isn't just mental — it's embodied. Learn how to stabilize peace and prevent relapse into performance by living from your recalibrated identity. This episode reveals how real transformation moves from head to heart to habit.Burnout recovery and identity realignment don't happen in theory — they happen in your body.In this season finale of The Recalibration, Julie Holly guides high-capacity humans through the final step of transformation: embodiment. You've released, reclaimed, and reinforced truth — now it's time to live it.Drawing from somatic integration, psychology, and Viktor Frankl's insights on meaning-making, this episode explores how to anchor new identity states so deeply that peace becomes your body's new baseline. You'll learn why repetition — not intensity — rewires your nervous system, and how to stabilize transformation when old rhythms try to return.Julie shares real-world wisdom through the story of Paul Polman, the former Unilever CEO who embodied long-term purpose over short-term performance, proving that integrity and peace can coexist with powerful leadership.This isn't about trying harder — it's about trusting deeper. You'll hear how to recognize the “space between stimulus and response,” where alignment lives, and how to meet that space with presence instead of pressure.Because identity-level change isn't achieved — it's inhabited.Today's Micro Recalibration:Take a quiet moment and ask, “What does peace look like on me now?” Notice how it feels in your body, your breath, your pace. That's your reminder that transformation isn't a finish line — it's a rhythm. You don't have to strive for alignment. You can live from it.If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.
