S7 E8 – The 7 Warning Signs of Burnout in Midlife: Are You Experiencing It Too?



Burnout. The struggle is real. If you feel simultaneously tired and wired, yet struggle with sleep at night, or if the activities that once brought you joy now feel like chores…you could be experiencing burnout. In our fast-paced world, feeling overwhelmed, exhausted and detached has become all too common.

Burnout in midlife is a bit different. This stage of life can be particularly challenging due to various factors such as career pressures, caregiving responsibilities for both children and aging parents, and the physical and psychological changes associated with aging. But there are things you can do to take on burnout head-on.

In this special solo episode, I’ll share the 7 warning signs of midlife burnout, 7 things you can do to address it and what I am personally doing about it. Because yes, I am burned out, and am finally acknowledging it.

Stay tuned for a special announcement at the end of this short episode.
