This week we talk about burnout which can be a serious productivity / health issue.

We luckily have not had it but at times we've come close to it.

Over the years we've learned how to pick up on signals that we're getting burned out and developed some tips to better prevent falling into its insidious traps. All of which we cover in this episode.

Enjoy and we hope it helps you.
