Our guest is Dr. Sharon Grossman, author of The 7E Solution to Burnout: Transforming High Achievers from Exhausted to Extraordinary.
ABOUT THE EPISODE Everyone has felt the burnout of a long week. The sudden fatigue, the lack of motivation, and the need for rest all make for an unpleasant feeling. But the symptoms of burnout aren't limited to the body; the mind and spirit are equally affected. The inability to focus, the constant negative thoughts and emotions, and the inability to prioritize can have a serious impact on the work you do, the relationships you have, and your overall well-being.
Recent studies show that more than half of the workforce experiences some level of burnout. If you’re feeling like you’re constantly on edge, your brain is probably telling you that you need a break. However, taking time off can be hard when you feel like you’re already behind on your work; you may end up feeling even more overwhelmed when you come back.
In this episode, we're joined by Dr. Sharon Grossman. She is a burnout expert, best-selling author, and speaker. We talk with her about how to crack the code on your burnout so it doesn't happen again.
