Manage episode 394784023 series 3464035
Let’s start with a quote from my guest, Dr. Romie Mushtaq’s website:
Calling all high-achieving professionals. It’s time to put an end to relentless cycles of stress, anxiety, and burnout.
Umm, yes, please. That gets my attention. I want less stress, anxiety, and rebound burnout cycles. I want more joy, ease, and peace in my life. You know what I’m talking about. It’s our rise-and-grind culture that is killing us. There has to be a better way. And the great news is that Dr. Romie has a tool that will show us how to better manage our stress and heal our brains and bodies. We are not meant to work insane hours Monday – Friday, crash into the couch on Friday – Sunday, only to have the Sunday scaries to do it all again on Monday. Do you feel me? I know you do. There’s a better way.
During my chat with Dr. Romi, we discussed:
● The story behind her move from being a doctor of traditional medicine to stress management.
● The creation of her book THE BUSY BRAIN CURE: The Eight-Week Plan to Find Focus, Tame Anxiety & Sleep Again?
● What a busy brain is.
● The signs of the busy brain and how it is not an addiction like work or achievement addiction. It’s our brains and bodies signaling to us that healing needs to take place.
● Dr. Romie’s definition of burnout and why it occurs (and I have to tell you, I loved her explanation of it all)
● Steps that you can take today to start healing our busy brains
● And why all of this is important to take into consideration in leadership at work.
