Burnout. It is nearly a buzzword today. Have you experienced it? Are you experiencing it now? It is a good idea to learn about burnout so you can be prepared when it rears its head in your life.
Julie Turney is a fellow cofounder of HR Wellbeing Week. She and I have a great discussion on burnout, especially in HR. We also discuss the following:
What to do when you experience burnout
You can't help other people until you realize you need help yourself
You can't help anyone else if you are burned out
The benefits of therapy and coaching
Find ways to take care of yourself that work for you
"Ego is the anesthesia that deadens the pain of stupidity"
Why it is ok for HR to ask for help
Being human means you can admit the highs and lows of life
No matter how good we look on the outside, we are all dealing with our own demons.
