Episode 33: Permission to Pause: Addressing Burnout in Men


Listen Later

A car can be driven from the west coast to the east coast of the continental United States; 5,800 miles. Sure it can- as long as there’s enough gas in the tank, oil is regulated, and all components are in relatively good health. But… there must be gas in the tank.

When the fuel is low, we make a brief pit stop to refuel. That short break, with the intention of replenishment, puts you back on the road again.

If you haven’t already guessed, this long winded metaphor is relatable to men (and women) everywhere. For our purposes, we discuss men. Why can’t we show the same care and obligation to our own nourishment that we do for our cars. Ours cars which, some men have referred to as: a hunk of junk or POS.

Sometimes, you don’t want to do anything. Not because you can’t but because you… “can’t”.

Can’t be motivated. Can’t be bothered. Can’t be “f***ked* BECAUSE: YOU👏🏻 ARE👏🏻 OUT👏🏻 OF👏🏻 FUEL👏🏻

On today’s episode, Brandon and Gavin discuss the topic that almost never happened due to its very theme: Burnout, and what we can do to handle and overcome its pull to withdraw.
