Decode Your Burnout (formerly Optimize Your Life)

Do you carry the responsibility for the world on your shoulders? Has that backfired on you? Too often when we lead with our heart and we fall out of balance, we can get burned out and find our lives turning upside down. 

This week’s episode features International Keynote Speaker and award winning Australian leader, Jamie Getgood. He shares his burnout story and transformation through it all including his three tips to preventing burnout:

#1: Accept where you are

#2: Focus on the wins

#3: Delegate to continue creating wins while releasing what doesn't serve your highest good

Does your inner voice tell you that you’re not enough? Do you feel compelled to prove yourself at work, which leads to a perpetual go-go-go? 

Living in the rat race of “do more, be more” is what can lead to burnout. 

This week’s episode features  International Speaker, Best Selling Author, Mindset Coach and Recovering Perfectionist, Regena Rosa Celeste who has been through it all. She shares about the effects of stress, depression, and how when you’re afraid of dealing with something, burnout can show up to help you “stop doing and just be.”

Questions Regena asked herself, which you can try on:

• Am I doing too much?
• Do I need to take a step back?
• Am I willing to step into being the best version of myself?

Today, Regena works with conscious minded entrepreneurs to release anxiety and overwhelm so that they can live passionate, purposeful and peaceful lives. 

Her tips to prevent burnout include:

#1: Accept where you are

#2: Focus on the wins

#3: Delegate to continue creating wins while releasing what doesn't serve your highest good

Are you someone who redlines on a daily basis, can’t sleep at night, and even as your body is falling apart, you think, “I’m just going to feel exhausted and bone tired for the next 18 years and then my kids will all move out and magically everything will get better”? Do you assume if you’re struggling that you just need to try harder? Does your life look amazing on the outside but it doesn’t feel OK? 

If you answered yes to any of these questions, you are likely deeply burned out. 

This week, I interview Tracy Bingaman who experienced all of those things as a hard-driving surgery PA. On a gut level, she knew something had to change. She would say, “I can’t keep doing this” but because she was so busy and deep into burnout, she didn’t have time to figure out what to do instead. 

Burnout served as a wake-up call and since then she has transformed her life and career. After quitting her job, she created balance and peace where there was frenzy and chaos. Now she teaches working moms to have more time and more money than they know what to do with. You can find her loving her husband, pups and kids, chasing her dreams, skiing, reading fiction books and enjoying a well mixed margarita!

Her 3 tips include: 

#1: Determine your Basic Needs and start meeting at least one a day.

#2: Create a clear, enforceable boundary (with others or yourself) and then stick to it.

#3: Remember to rest - schedule time to actively rest and recover from the depths of burnout - not Netflix and veg, but to rest and give your body and mind the restorative support it needs.

One burnout profile is the Doer. It’s when you do a lot, but it doesn’t ever feel like enough. And maybe you are a workaholic, or maybe you don’t feel alive unless you’re doing a ton of stuff. Either way, if you’re burning out because you’re always on, listen as Genein Letford, Founder and Chief Creative Officer of CAFFE Strategies, shares her journey to recovery and balance.

Here’s a glimpse of what Genein was up to when she burned out:

• Full-time teaching
• Writing a book on the side
• Teaching night classes part-time
• On the board of DonorChoose.org
• Leadership at her church

…all while pregnant! Finally, once she had her baby and wasn’t sleeping enough, it was the perfect storm for burnout. 

Since then, Genein has integrated fundamental changes that have helped her have more balance, shift her mindset about her productivity and related worth, and allows her to enjoy motherhood and entrepreneurship where she now trains C-Suite executives and employees to create sustainable organizational equity and inclusion strategies while unleashing their innovative thinking for themselves and in their businesses.
