How To Recognise and Recover From Burnout with Penny Locaso

In today's episode, we delve into the crucial topic of recognising and recovering from burnout. Take a moment to pause and reflect: Have you been stuck in robot mode? Do you feel like you're merely existing rather than truly living? Are you struggling to set boundaries, drowning under an overwhelming to-do list? If you resonate with these questions, you're not alone. Many individuals invest all their energy into striving for perfection and pleasing others, only to end up drained and overwhelmed. The consequence? It becomes almost impossible to experience a genuine connection to purpose.
