Burnout Part 1: Burnout Is The Curse Of The Strong
In this episode of Resiliency Redefined, Dr. Robyne sheds light on what burnout really is, why it happens, and how it affects us. She unpacks the three key signs—exhaustion, cynicism, and reduced efficacy—and explains how burnout isn’t about weakness; it’s often the curse of the strong. She also highlights that burnout isn’t only about long hours and heavy workloads—it’s the time spent living and working outside of our values that contributes to it.
If you find yourself approaching the edges of burnout or deep in it, this conversation will help you take the first steps toward feeling better.
