Burnout To Balance: My Survival and Recovery of Recent Burnout

Marijanel Show

076. Ever found yourself feeling overwhelmed and depleted of energy, wondering if you're on the brink of burnout? In a time where many of us are juggling multiple tasks and responsibilities, it can be all too easy to lose track of our own well-being.
I've been there...recently... grappling with the aftermath of a particularly busy season that left me feeling drained.
Join me as I revisit that intense period of my life, discussing the pressures that contributed to my burnout and how it manifested for me.
As we go through my narrative of recovery, we'll explore the personal coping mechanisms that helped me regain control of my well-being.
Hear about how simple actions like taking naps and reducing social activities, along with practices like journaling and imposing tech-time limits became instrumental in my recuperation. I hope that my experience inspires you to devise your own strategies when the pressure starts to build.
But it's not just about surviving burnout, it's also about learning to prevent it. So, in closing of the show, I share valuable tips and insights that have worked for me and that come highly recommended.
I also touch upon the 'because I can' syndrome, a common trap that needs careful handling during times of stress and pressure. Mostly I hope that as I reflect on the invaluable lessons learned from my summer 2023 that you feel encouraged to know the importance of recognizing burnout symptoms, how to manage them effectively, and ways you can practice self-care to prevent burnout in your own life.
