323 - What Are the Signs of Burnout? How Chronic Stress Hijacks Your Hormones, Energy & Career


Listen Later

"Burnout is why I left. I just started talking myself out of it, that we shouldn’t do it anymore. I just kind of ignored those feelings. It’s strange to fall out of love with something that you’ve done every single moment of every single day for a very long time. Maybe it’ll be too sooner than later, right? But right now, that is going to keep it fresh. I want to keep this feeling." -Dotsie Bausch 

“I’m talking about how important B complex vitamins are for stress, and yet I’m at home, in my hotel room, on the road, grinding so hard that I’m not taking my own advice. I just kind of ignored those feelings. I feel like I am the piece of toast that fell to the back of the toaster oven that we forgot about.” -Jason Wrobel

Burnout shows up in many forms—it can build slowly and quietly over time, or seemingly strike all at once after a long period of strain. In this episode, Dotsie and Jason open up about their own experiences, from losing passion for what they once loved to finding the courage to step back and reevaluate everything. They share the first crucial steps toward recovery, the importance of protecting your health, and how to know when it’s time to make a change. Whether you're in the thick of burnout or just starting to feel the signs, this conversation offers real talk, practical guidance, and a spark of hope.

What we discuss in this episode:

  • Dotsie’s go-to strategies for coping with burnout.

  • Understanding the connection between burnout and adrenal fatigue—and how to test for it.

  • The role of nutrition in healing from burnout.

  • Supplements that may help support and protect your adrenal glands.
