Burnout Is the Wake-Up Call: Building a Business Without Breaking Yourself


Listen Later

Feel like you're killing it on the outside but falling apart behind the scenes?

In this raw and powerful episode, Jon sits down with Robert David Weeks—strategist, speaker, and host of Make Burnout Extinct—to explore what burnout really looks like for high-performing entrepreneurs. They dive into RD’s wild journey from throwing a 500+ person event (and losing $250K in the process) to finding radical honesty, healing, and building systems that keep you in the game long-term.

If you’ve ever hit a breaking point (or felt like you're headed there), this episode is your permission slip to slow down and level up—with intention.

👊 This isn’t just about avoiding burnout. It’s about using it as fuel to rebuild your business, your habits, and your life.

🎧 Tune in for hard-earned wisdom, practical mindset shifts, and habits that energize instead of drain.
