It's Not About the Alcohol

EP136 What to do when you're approaching burnout

How do you respond when you hear yourself say, "I can't keep doing this?"

Most of us crack the whip and keep doing it. We beat ourselves up for being weak or undisciplined. And suppress the growing anxiety and overwhelm that's telling us something is wrong.

The harder we try, the more exhausted we get. The excitement and motivation that gave us the energy to keep going mutates into cynicism and hopelessness.

But those negative emotions are your superpowers. Everything you want is on the other side of the feelings you don't want to feel. The breakthrough you need can't happen until you surrender to the breakdown.
