SHOW NOTES
What is burnout?
A syndrome characterized by chronic workplace stress that has not been properly managed that is specific to the workplace can bleed into other areas of life. There are three dimensions of burnout

- Increased mental distance
- Reduced professional output

- Stress occurs in cycles, where an event happens, you’re stressed and then the event ends and stress recedes
- Healthy stress should include some type of celebration or rest to complete the cycle to ensure that stress recedes
- Burnout is continuous stress cycles over a long period of time
Can I manage repeated instances stress without getting burnout?
Yes, you can manage stress with preparation and planning in a way that won’t necessarily lead you to burnout. For example, if you know a stressful presentation, case or week is coming up, plan your workouts, meals and downtime in advance. Actually write these things in your schedule.

Depression is characterized by a deeper and more chronic sense of hopelessness, despair, irritability and/or anxiety that is more difficult to overcome. Mild depressive symptoms may be present in burnout but depressive symptoms associated with burnout are generally more situational/environment-specific and can be cured more easily with a change of environment or habits.

Unaddressed burnout can lead to:
- Depression
- Heart Issues
- Irritable Bowel Syndrome (difficulty pooping)
- Poor Diet
- Hair Loss
How do we overcome burnout?
NOTHING. DO NOTHING. The best thing you can do for yourself when you are burnt out is to REST. You need to reset your nervous system so that it can return to a healthy state of rest.
