In this episode, I chat with international speaker, technology professional, and community builder Dr. Chela White to tackle the all-too-familiar topics of Perfectionism and Burnout. We share ways to align your values to your work-life, and how to manage stress when those two things are misaligned. Plus, we share several tips and ideas to make your challenges feel a little less lonely.
For anyone experiencing Burnout - you are definitely not alone! This conversation should help you feel a sense of belonging, increase your optimism of things becoming more positive, and hopefully inspire you to do good at work and in your personal life!
