Burnout isn't always about exhaustion - sometimes, its fueled by rewards we don't even realize we're chasing. In this episode, we unpack the hidden "payoffs" of burnout: the extra money, the respect from peers, and the shiny new titles that keep us pushing past healthy limits. If you've ever wondered why it's so hard to slow down, even when you know you should, this conversation will give you new insight - and encouragement - to rethink the cost of the rewards you're working toward.
