Summary

 

The risk and impact of burning out is something that most people want to avoid.

 

And when a recent podcast episode on burnout rapidly became my most listened to episode ever, I knew we’d hit a nerve.  

 

So I’ve asked Counselling and Clinical Psychologist, Katrina Streatfeild to come back on the podcast and talk about what we can do to move beyond burnout.

 

We talked about:

 

• Beyond normal – all the things happening in the world right now

• How old coping mechanisms might not be enough anymore

• Long term stressors, stress hormones and our ability to cope

• How do we get off the hamster wheel?

• The impact on others when we are compassionate for ourselves

• The necessity of acknowledging that the world has changed

• A process for reimagining our future

• Defining what's realistic in terms of goals now

• How do we figure out what's meaningful now?

• Setting new baselines

• What to do if you don't know what success looks like any longer

So if the thought of facing an unknown future has you feeling a bit exhausted, you are not alone.  Have a listen and try the process Katrina is suggesting.  It may help.
