We spoke about how to deal with overwhelm on episode 108. However, this topic is more about burnout, which is described as being distinct from typical overwhelm, which occurs when you have too much to do and don't know where to start, making you want to curl up in bed for the day, whereas burnout occurs when the thought of doing that item, or spending time with it, makes you practically detest it, and it's difficult to do even if you only have one thing to do.
