The Doomsday Clock says we are 85 seconds til midnight. In other words, we are the closest ever to the world self-destructing since this annual Doomsday Report launched in 1947.

However, it's not all doom and gloom. We all have a light to shine in this world, despite the timeline, darkness, propaganda, or corruption. The Doomsday Report is a wake-up call.

Burnout doesn't just occur at the first sign of overwhelm. Burnout happens when overwhelm intersects with a change in season. A change of values, interests, or circumstances.

Like the weather, seasons will change. We all evolve. When it does, it's our job NOT to remain stagnant.

In this episode, I draw on the burnout story from the 1993 Groundhog Day movie to share 4 tips for navigating burnout, career pivots, and adapting to the season.

After 31,000 miles of traveling through 25 states and parts of Canada, Greg Zweber and I sat down one last time to chat about his YEAR-LONG SABBATICAL.

Once again, Greg didn't disappoint as he was an open door for gaining wisdom from his decision to walk away from the 9-to-5, to his contemplation on how to return to the world of work. Greg's story isn't to just entertain. Sharing Greg's journey is meant to inspire and offer golden nuggets to those looking for ways to make career transitions thoughtfully and strategically.

Most of us only dream of taking a sabbatical. The thought is like jumping out of a plane without a working parachute. Greg's story is living proof that parachutes work for those who choose to leap.

With every New Year, it's easy to want to turn over a new leaf, start new healthy habits, and set new personal goals. But the majority of all New Year goals fail by the 3rd week of January. Goal setting is not bad, but we can adopt a countercultural mindset that brings even more fulfillment despite the outcome.

There is a $10M bounty for anyone who cracks the cold case of the world's biggest heist, the 1990 robbery of the Isabella Gardner Museum. But this is not an isolated unsolved mystery. From the Louvre to Switzerland to Timbuktu, museum heists are at an all-time high in 2025. To recover the countless amount of precious jewels and masterpieces, we first have to consider if it's an inside job. Inside jobs are human jobs...but the art of being human is in jeopardy. Our hidden gems, aka purpose, are being stolen from right under our noses (and devices), and perhaps this episode will help sound the alarm, so humans don't become the ancient artifacts. This is the season finale of the Work-Life Eubiosis podcast. Please sign up for our newsletter to keep up with other projects and resources at www.ownyour5to9.com.
