Debunking the 5 Biggest Myths About Burnout (and why a holiday won't fix it!)
Burnout is not the price of ambition. On Balance and Beyond, we challenge the notion that achieving success means accepting exhaustion and guilt as constants in your life. Burnout doesn't discriminate; it affects high achievers, including ambitious women and perfectionists, who often feel pressured to shoulder burdens alone. We spotlight the necessity of seeking help and breaking free from toxic patterns that accelerate burnout. This episode sheds light on why it's crucial to recognise that burnout isn't a badge of honor but a signal to reevaluate how you're living and working.
Join us as we redefine burnout management beyond the outdated notion that more vacations or better time management are the solutions. Instead, we emphasise the importance of understanding and addressing the emotional roots of stress. Through personal stories and the concept of the "three D's of change"—divorce, disease, and death—we illustrate how crucial life events can serve as wake-up calls to confront burnout. We explore how personal patterns and belief systems, rather than just long hours, drive burnout and empower you to identify what you can control. Together, we'll debunk myths, challenge misconceptions, and equip you with insights to reclaim balance and thrive in both your professional and personal life.
