Stop the Burnout Cycle | Ep 034

Gurus & Game Changers

➡️ About the Guest: Kristen Donnelly, PhD
Ever felt like you're running on empty, with burnout lurking around every corner of your work life? Dr. Kristen Donnelly, author of "The Culture of Burnout: Why Exhaustion is Not Your Fault," joins us to unravel the tangled web of exhaustion that's not just a product of our hectic schedules, but also of the systemic pressures we face daily. In our heart-to-heart, Dr. Donnelly, armed with her social science expertise, peels back the layers of this modern epidemic, guiding us through understanding how societal expectations and our busyness culture contribute to our collective weariness.
It's time to recognize that burnout doesn't discriminate; it can sneak up on anyone, irrespective of age or career stage. During our chat, Dr. Donnelly sheds light on how generational differences play out in the workplace, particularly for Gen Z—the digital natives grappling with the unique pressures of social media and a rapidly evolving job market. We probe into the significance of fostering nurturing work relationships and setting healthy boundaries, examining how tailored communication and emotional intelligence go a long way in preventing the burnout beast from taking hold.
As we wrap up, the conversation takes a poignant turn to the quieter signs of burnout that often go unnoticed, yet scream for attention. Dr. Donnelly shares her 'four R's' — a lifeline for those feeling submerged in workplace quicksand. We also dive into a candid discussion about gendered experiences of burnout, and why kindness, starting with self-compassion, might just be the antidote we've been searching for. Join us for an episode that doesn't just dissect the issue but arms you with strategies to reclaim your energy and thrive in a world that often demands too much.
