Burnout doesn't just happen in therapy rooms or hospitals—it happens in boardrooms, loan offices, and anywhere women are expected to give endlessly without pause. In this episode, we're joined by Tanner Greenwalt, a seasoned mortgage professional who is changing the way her industry views mental health and success. Tanner shares her personal journey through burnout, what recovery looked like, and how she learned to set boundaries in a profession that rarely encourages it. We also discuss what burnout really feels like (hint: it's not just being tired), why slowing down is essential—not selfish—and how mental health should be the foundation of any meaningful definition of success. We talk about: What burnout really looks and feels like in high-pressure jobs The hidden emotional toll of careers in finance and service industries Tools for completing the stress cycle during your workday The lie that burnout is "just part of the job" Redefining success around mental health, joy, and sustainability Advice we'd give to our younger selves about boundaries and wellbeing Why wellness isn't a luxury—it's a necessity Resources Mentioned: Burnout: The Secret to Unlocking the Stress Cycle by Emily and Amelia Nagoski Pique Your Interest Podcast by Tanner Greenwalt (Spotify + YouTube) Let's connect and keep the conversation going!

It's a relevant topic for our stress-filled times of economic and political upheaval, and for our every day “hurry hurry” lifestyle, so the topic seemed apt. I've faced burnout in my past, and I talk about some of that here as we unpack the stress cycle and what to do when you're stuck in that space. I haven't talked much about this before, so this is a new experience for me. I hope you'll find this helpful, and will pick up this book by the Nagoski sisters, “Burnout: The Secret to Unlocking the Stress Cycle.” They go into the science and the “how to” of restoration in much more detail than I do here.I hope you've subscribed to us wherever you get your podcasts; please, share my work widely, give us a review or a drop us a few stars, it really does help.

*** FREE COFFEE CHAT: https://lindsaylymancoaching.com/chat *** 3 STEPS TO DEAL WITH A BAD MANAGER: https://lindsaylymancoaching.com/badmanager Part 2 of our Burnout Series: Understanding the Stress Cycle Ever notice how some people seem to handle stress better than others? In this episode, I break down the crucial difference between stressors (the external stuff we can't control) and stress (our body's response that we CAN manage). I explain why both control freaks and avoiders get it wrong when dealing with stress, and break down the three parts of the stress cycle that you need to understand: · The Beginning: Recognizing the threat · The Middle: Taking action (even when you don't feel like it) · The End: Acknowledging when you're safe Here's the thing: you're going to face dozens, maybe hundreds, of stressors every day. But you don't have to let them pile up like juggling balls until everything crashes down. Listen in to learn how to complete the stress cycle so you can handle work pressure without burning out. Plus, I share why your brain actually prefers staying stressed (weird, right?) and what to do about it.

*** FREE COFFEE CHAT: https://lindsaylymancoaching.com/chat *** 3 STEPS TO DEAL WITH A BAD MANAGER: https://lindsaylymancoaching.com/badmanager I'm kicking off our four-part burnout series by sharing my personal journey with burnout after 12 years at Amazon, including what happened when typical solutions like rest and self-care weren't enough. I break down the difference between burnout and depression, explain why saying "just take a break" isn't the answer, and share the five fundamental areas that actually helped me recover (and still help me stay balanced today). If you're feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or just "off" lately, this episode offers practical, sustainable solutions that go beyond bubble baths and meditation apps. Plus, I share a game-changing perspective on stress that changed everything for me (hint: it involves chocolate rivers and Oompa Loompas
Send us a textStress is a natural part of life, but staying in a constant state of stress? That's a recipe for burnout. In this episode, I share a powerful lesson I learned after dealing with disappointment and seeking advice from my coach. She introduced me to the concept of the stress cycle (from the book Burnout by Amelia and Emily Nagoski) and how important it is to complete it—otherwise, your body holds onto stress in unhealthy ways.If you've been feeling weighed down, this episode will help you process those emotions and let them go so you can show up as your best self.Key Takeaways:Feel your feelings – Don't suppress them. Acknowledging emotions is the first step to moving through stress.Complete the stress cycle – Your body needs an action to signal that stress is over (e.g., exercise, laughter, crying, deep breathing).Community and connection help – Hugs, conversations, and support from loved ones signal to your brain that you're safe and okay.Links Mentioned in This Episode:Burnout: The Secret to Unlocking the Stress CycleLet's Get More Time Virtual Summit (Feb 20-22)Support the showVisit www.realhappymom.com to learn more.

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

Hello, hi! Today's episode is more Medium Effort Advice. In this episode our listener asked “Past me seemed to have it all figured out. I look at pictures from 2-3 years ago and I want to get back to that but right now everything feels too hard. What do I do?” This episode is for you if you feel like you used to be on top of things, but somehow, you've gotten off track. Episode Summary Check in: I'm fighting the end of a cold (sorry for the congestion!) and all of my October anticipation (yay! Events! Friends! Family!) is colliding with that common desire to just cancel everything and stay home. Today's listener asks a question (sent on IG) about how to get back on track, especially when comparing your current self to your past self. High effort problem solving: the high effort approach will quickly flex to muscle things back to ‘the way they were'. This approach tries to solve the problem by taking a deficit-minded approach to goal setting. This approach might take on a “self-care project” that will demonstrate achievement or future transformation. While you may get a high from the initial goal setting, eventually these radical goals are hard to sustain and may perpetuate the cycle when you find yourself “off track” again. Low effort problem solving: This approach sees the problem as very overwhelming and dreads a future where everything is even worse. They spend so much time catastrophizing the future they become anxious and overwhelmed. Because of this, the low effort personality will avoid their core emotions and escape by performing activities that change the external environment. These activitiies usually keep their hands busy in a way that temporarily helps “shut off” those emotions. Medium Effort problem solving: Instead of the ideal future, the troubled past, or the dreaded future, what if wes set goals based on our resourceful past? *these 4 ideas are from the Dialectical Orientation Quadrant studied and published by Dr. Haesun Moon (see resources). Medium effort goal setting addresses what's happened between that “past you” and the present - reflecting on the passage of time, evaluating the themes of your past and reviewing what you're proud of and how you've tackled challenges. This approach allows you to fill in the gaps between here and there adn acknowledge that there's many things that influenced change over time. Mindfully setting goals after acknowledging the past enables you to acknowledge present you and use what has gone well in the past to support your future growth and goal achievement. Mindful Fun: Build a playlist to ground you in the present season. These songs might include some nostalgic favourites but should be focused on what you're enjoying right now. Enjoy the playlist whenever you're engaging in tasks or habits to support your new goals. Let the music you choose today represent your current season of life so future you can remember this time fondly. A Moment of Gratitude: I share my gratitude for my parents both for hosting my youngest two sons for a sleep over but also to acknowledge our evolving relationship and the ways that our relationship has been able to evolve to meet our needs and the season of life we find ourselves in. Mom and Dad, I love you both very much.

John continues his conversation with Petra Velzeboer. The two share their valuable perspectives on education, the changing job market, mental health, and the impact of digital technology on our well-being. Petra also shares her journey of writing her first book, Begin with You, and her upcoming book, Digital Wellbeing: Recharge Your Focus and Reboot Your Life, which explores the impact of technology on our mental health and relationships.

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

Hello gentle-people, As I was organizing this series into a collection that could be accessed on my landing page, I realized I couldn't find part one. I racked my mind and my posts to see if maybe I accidently changed the name somehow or it ended up somewhere it wasn't meant to be. I gave up after my search rendered no results……it seems I have accidently deleted it.I will return later with a transcript to replace this piece—perhaps when I also get around to doing what I've resolved to do during my publishing break: move my drafts over to a safe place. I have *mumbles incoherently* drafts on here. My biggest fear has been confirmed—I have to be saving these posts somewhere else!Luckily, I had recorded part 1 before this mishap. Wishing you all a gentle landing, as I extend that same wish to my weary self today.Here is part 2 & 3:Hello, gentle people,I am always playing with phrases. Maybe you've noticed. Lately, I have been cracking myself up by dropping, “don't threaten me with a good time, into my conversations.” Today, I am playing with the phrase, I could care less, because it's true—I could give it my best try. water sign woman by Lucille Clifton the woman who feels everything sits in her new house waiting for someone to come who knows how to carry water without spilling, who knows why the desert is sprinkled with salt, why tomorrow is such a long and ominous word. they say to the feel things woman that little she dreams is possible, that there is only so much joy to go around, only so much water. there are no questions for this, no arguments. she has to forget to remember the edge of the sea, they say, to forget how to swim to the edge, she has to forget how to feel. the woman who feels everything sits in her new house retaining the secret the desert knew when it walked up from the ocean, the desert, so beautiful in her eyes; water will come again if you can wait for it. she feels what the desert feels. she waits.The troublesome work of defining careDepending on how you read my intro letter, You might be thinking, “I can't believe Rose J. Percy, writer of A Gentle Landing, is saying she wants to lean into heartlessness. I'm unsubscribing immediately!” And I blame the ambiguous nature of the word care and its many definitions. I could do a whole series on the definitions and probably write a post a week for the rest of the year. Just look at how many interpretations we could delve into. Now, here I have a screenshot of the definitions of care taken from a Google search, which you can delve into yourself and linger on these definitions, but it's interpreted as a noun and also a verb and comes with so many meanings I didn't even count. Luckily, I have already written on some definitions of care that I'm partial to. In one post, I talk about the word care through the word “tender” and how we can think about it as a way of a caring attention. One might call it tenderness, and the acceptance of ourselves as tenders. And that post is called Permission to Linger. I have also written on writing as a practice of care in my series delving into my writing praxis. And that post is called “A Place for Keeping, Writing as a Practice of Care.”Now, here are some definitions that I am fond of. And for the purposes of this post, I am understanding these four definitions of care and I added a fifth for just the ways I'm playing with the words “carrying” and “care” together. * Care as a tending (or attending), once again, with particular emphasis on attention. Since we have been here before, let's stick with “tending.”* Care as an attachment or interest. Let's stick with the word “attachment.” It often feels like the things we care of are a part of us..sometimes we are indeed connected.* Care as avoidance of danger or risk. I will “caution,” instead here, since I also love the phrase “throw caution to the wind.” We can do some fun poetic things with that.* Care as a troubling, a feeling stirred up by what we brood over. I will use the word “burden” here, since something of this definition reminds me to remember the weight.* I will also be playing with caring and carrying in order to drive home one central point: we all have a carrying capacity when it comes to care…even if we hate to admit it.“You have to turn it off. You have to learn to turn it off.” I am trying harder to care less every day.By that I mean, as a child, I used to be overwhelmed by something one might call “car(ry)ing too much. Some might also call it a sense of responsibility or conviction. And I read this book once in college, and it was treated like the pinnacle text for our general education curriculum. And it was assigned as the last text in our ethics class, the capstone text, and it was called Scandalous Obligation by Eric Severson. And I remember reading that book, which talks about Christian responsibility, and I thought, “this book is not for me.” Because I am the girl who, just upon seeing a commercial on food insecurity affecting children miles away, could not bring herself to enjoy a cookout. An auntie of mine gave me a speech which remains with me forever, and the essence was, “you can't help the children if you cry. You have to learn how to suck it up and feed yourself so you can grow big and strong. Then you can be of much better use to them." Through the years, I have either taken her advice or shaken it off. And her words led me to see my feelings as an inconvenience in a sphere of caring. And sometimes I can't help but feel she had a point when I find myself stirring in my worries for myself and others. I was a cautious child and I grew into a cautious adult.I can't help but feel her point when I seem to collect cares or grow a new interest in some injustice in the world beyond my capacity to respond or affect change. And I see her point when as a result of these new interests and attachments, I feel scattered and overwhelmed by all there is to care about.And I see her point when I feel like I'm failing, either emotionally or through physical challenges I'm still learning about in my attempt to “learn how to carry water,” as it leaks out of the sides of my eyes in this last ditch attempt to demonstrate how burdened I truly am. So as I consider her words, I felt like I had to learn how to turn something off. And back then I was just barely a teenager and I couldn't name it. So I tried hard when I was overwhelmed to shut off everything. I've included a picture of my monstera plant when I first got it a few months after I first got it in the spring of 2021. Something had to go. In the midst of what has been a hard couple of weeks, much of which was defined by embodied mental, emotional, and spiritual pain, I wanted to let something go. I had entertained many different ideas, but I was pretty certain I wanted to cut off my hair. In the past, going bald served as a foundation for embracing a new shift in focus. But I didn't want a new haircut.I wasn't ready to let go of my locs. I didn't want to get a new haircut. I wasn't ready to let go of my locks, but something had to go. I could feel it.So I chose to take some cuttings off of this beautiful monstera plant you see in these pictures. I kept the new cuttings and placed the large potted plant, which looked a bit too large to be on the bookshelf that it lived on, out to the curb to be received by some happy stranger.I first got my monstera in 2021 when I was nurturing a rather large houseplant collection. The room I was staying in had a beautiful big south-facing window. My monstera lived with me through three houses, and I had gifted cuttings from it and watched it grow to require two moss poles for support.I watched in surprise when it flourished at the last place I lived, a place where I struggled to flourish. My room, small and dark, had a tiny window taken up halfway by an AC unit that was screwed into the window. I used grow lights to try to keep a few plants alive on the bookshelf. My efforts failed. Somehow, though, new leaves kept coming up along the sides of my monstrous potted home. I wrote down my care instructions on an index card, complete with notes on the last time it was fertilized and how long ago it was repotted. I hoped the next person would not let her die, but I knew there was a chance I could have killed her myself. I worried about killing her constantly. Now she was someone else's burden. I now have one less thing to care about. I could care less. “Rose, run that song back one more time. The one where you're crying, ‘Help me, I'm dying.' I love the melody!”—me in a conversation about how my work feels sometimes. When I consider that burnout produces apathy, it makes sense that so many people experience a fatigue around their ability to care. It has been a while since I read Burnout: The Secret of Unlocking the Stress Cycle by Emily and Amelia Nagowski,but I hold onto one of my takeaways from the definition of burnout outlined in Three parts, the first being emotional exhaustion, the fatigue that comes from caring too much for too long. Many of us know this in a parallel term, compassion fatigue, which often applies to those who work in caring professions or hold domestic caregiving responsibilities.Our society is continually reinforcing individualism that harms us all, and this definitely impacts what we think caring ought to look like. This is a quote from Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha from Care Work Dreaming Disability Justice:“What does it mean to shift our ideas of access and care (whether it's disability, health care, economic access, or many more) from an individual chore an unfortunate cost of having an unfortunate body to a collective responsibility that's maybe even deeply joyful? What does it mean for our movements? Our communities/fam? Ourselves and our own lived experience of disability and chronic illness? What does it mean to wrestle with these ideas of softness and strength, vulnerability, pride, asking for help and not—all of which are deeply raced and classed and gendered?”These questions posed by Piepzna-Samarasinha serve as an inspiration for me as I write. An understanding that communal care makes a gentle landing possible undergirds all of this. Also true is the understanding that falling, failing, and flailing are often inevitable on this path.But what does that have to do with caring less? You tell me. How much can you actually hold? How much are you holding right now in this breath when you think of that question? So let's break it down further into questions that reflect the definitions I've mentioned:;* What are you tending to in this season, really? Not what you are saying you are tending to, but what is actually possible within the time you have allotted? * Are you committed to anything at present that requires more than your hands in order to be well taken care of? Have you stumbled into new interests and formed new attachments? Are these new extremities splintering your capacity? Is there anything you can cut off so that water can flow to what is flourishing? Are there ways these new attachments can be nurtured through a network of care versus your individual care? * Perhaps you are now much more aware of all there is to be afraid of, the dangers and the risks all around you. Has any of this fear contributed to loving yourself and others better? Where can you, “throw caution to the wind,” in recognition that your worrying has its limits with forecasting? I hope you're keeping track and notice that I left burden out of this list. We will return to it soon enough.But how about we take a break here? I also included a Lucille Clifton poem here. So you're free to take some time with it and we will come around to it again. because I am learning how to pace myself as an active care. I am taking time with my words, as you've seen in the “perching lines” series.I am trying to make these newsletters just a bit lighter. But trust, we will come back to the burden. I know because, well, the burden always finds its way back to me. I am learning how to carry water.I want to say this marvelous woman's poetry has changed my life. Since the day I first heard, won't you celebrate with me, recited by the dean of students in seminary. I knew it was for me somehow. In the way that I know many Black women, femmes, and men, such as my brothers Robert and Jan, find themselves in her poetry. June 27th is her birthday. Tomorrow, if you're reading this on pub day. I wanted to do something big. I wanted to have a conversation, read some poems, have folks listen. And as I planned it, the details that I wanted to line up only led me to more questions. But I kept searching for a way to honor her birthday and to recognize how becoming a Lucille Clifton scholar has shaped me. I want to honor her work like Alexis Pauline Gumbs honors the survival ethics of Audre Lorde or how adrienne maree brown devotes herself to the world building of Octavia Butler.I would be satisfied to honor her with just one twentieth of the archival devotion Professor Honorée Jeffers brought to the three-hour class she taught on the Sankofa Poetics of Lucille Clifton last month. I have been trying to find a way to study the poetics of Lucille Clifton in some official capacity other than this newsletter, but maybe this is it. And if that is the case, I am thankful to reflect on her poetry here. I am thankful for the people it has brought close to me. I am thankful for the light that came to Lucille Clifton and so glad it seems to have found its way to me.Or maybe this is my burden: to do as my faves above do in bringing the words they love into the worlds they love. Perhaps this is why it doesn't feel like enough to just do an event, read some poems, and call it a day. I need to write about the light that came to Rose J. Percy. I keep wondering if I am meant to carry it all by myself. As I sat in my sorrows about this event that never was, I realized I overlooked a very important Cliftonian idea:The event was her life.She says, won't you celebrate with me what I have shaped into a kind of life?So I sent some brave emails. I applied for a job I felt too afraid to hope I might get. I shared a burden with my closest friends. I am taking steps to learn to live and love better.21:05I am leaning into my dreams because I must do something with this quote kind of life and quote that I keep surviving. In her invitation is the audacity to believe there is something worth celebrating about being here. I will celebrate her life by living my own more deeply. If you are reading, then you are bearing witness and thus attending an event I could never plan out in my wildest dreams. So thank you for being here. Let's keep seeing where this goes.

Have you ever felt distressed by something that happened at work? Something you witnessed, something you felt forced to do, something you did not agree with? In healthcare, we see distressing things regularly. Sometimes we passively or actively participate in things we believe to be wrong. When it upsets us, that is moral distress. When we carry that hurt in a way that negatively impacts our lives, that pain becomes moral injury.We are honored to welcome back our guest, Dr. Amy Locke, M.D.Dr. Locke is Chief Wellness Officer, Director of the Osher Center for Integrative Health, Professor of Family and Preventive Medicine and Adjunct Professor of Nutrition and Integrative Physiology at the University of Utah.

Moral injury can occur when healthcare professionals are forced to act in ways that contradict their moral or ethical beliefs due to external pressures or systemic constraints. Unlike burnout, which is often characterized by physical and emotional exhaustion, moral injury stems from a deep sense of betrayal or moral conflict. In this episode, we'll explore the difference between moral injury and burnout and discuss practical strategies for addressing moral injury in your life and career. Whether you're experiencing these challenges firsthand or supporting colleagues who are, this episode aims to provide some clarity and a touch hope. You'll walk away understanding moral injury and with the skills to identify if it's happening to you.

Are you feeling the burn... of burnout, that is?
Stress can get in the way of our communication with others. To manage our stress, psychologist Jenny Taitz says, we first need to adjust the conversations that we have with ourselves.Taitz is an assistant clinical professor in psychiatry at the University of California, Los Angeles, and the author of several books, including Stress Resets: How to Soothe Your Body and Mind in Minutes. According to her, much of the stress we experience is self-created through negative thought patterns and harsh self-criticism. “We're doing this to ourselves all the time,” she says. But as we become aware of these unhelpful mental loops, Taitz' “resets” can help us disrupt them and reframe self-talk in more productive waysIn addition to changing our self-talk, Taitz offers tools for refreshing our communication with others. In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, she and host Matt Abrahams explore her G.I.V.E. framework — how being gentle, interested, validating, and easy-mannered equips us for more positive conversations with ourselves and othersEpisode Reference Links:Jenny Taitz: Website Jenny's Book: Website Communicator Jenny admires: Sharon Salzberg Ep.69 Feeling Nervous?

We've had a lot of conversations about sex but in this repeat episode we've never really talked about it from the perspective of a woman, often it's from that of the man. And that sex is something we "have to do" vs. "want to do". Emily Nagoski joined us to talk about the barriers that prevent people from living with confidence and joy in their bodies. Emily is the award-winning author of the New York Times bestselling Come As You Are and The Come As You Are Workbook, and coauthor, with her sister Amelia, of the NYT bestseller Burnout: The Secret to Unlocking the Stress Cycle. She earned her M.S. in counselling and a Ph.D. in health behaviour, both from Indiana University, with clinical and research training at the Kinsey Institute.
