The risk and impact of burning out is something that most people want to avoid. 

And when a recent podcast episode on burnout rapidly became my most listened to episode ever, I knew we’d hit a nerve.  

So I’ve asked Counselling and Clincial Psychologist, Katrina Streatfeild to come back on the podcast and talk about what we can do to move beyond burnout.

We talked about:

• Beyond normal - all the things happening in the world right now
• How old coping mechanisms might not be enough anymore
• Long term stressors, stress hormones and our ability to cope
• How do we get off the hamster wheel?
• The impact on others when we are compassionate for ourselves
• The necessity of acknowledging that the world has changed
• A process for reimagining our future
• Defining what's realistic in terms of goals now
• How do we figure out what's meaningful now?
• Setting new baselines
• What to do if you don't know what success looks like any longer

So if the thought of facing an unknown future has you feeling a bit exhausted, you are not alone.  Have a listen and try the process Katrina is suggesting.  It may help.
