268: From Burned Out to Fully Charged in Life and Work
Manage episode 380265009 series 2860614
In a society that constantly pushes us to do more, achieve more, and be more, how do we ensure that we're not running on empty, or worse - experiencing debilitating physical, emotional and mental symptoms of stress? Joining us today to help unpack this complex topic is Dr. Neha Sangwan, who went from working on the frontlines of healthcare as a hospital emergency room physician, to becoming a key voice on burnout as an entrepreneur, author, and speaker. Her transformative new book Powered by Me: From Burned Out to Fully Charged at Work and in Life, was inspired by her own experiences as a young hospital physician when circumstances forced her to navigate the difficulties of extreme burnout. She is also the founder and CEO of Intuitive Intelligence Inc., where she combines the science of medicine with the art of communication to transform workplace cultures. In our conversation, Neha opens up about her life-altering experience with burnout, the impact it had on her, and how it reshaped her entire perspective on life and work. We delve into the complex nature of burnout, why it’s different for every individual, and explore the cultural, systemic, and personal dimensions of burnout. We also discuss our values as a society, why Neha believes burnout is a global epidemic and reflect on what would be needed to address our collective mental health crisis and return to equilibrium. If you’re interested in learning more about how to balance the relentless pace of modern life with genuine self-care, this is a conversation you won't want to miss. Tune in for Neha’s invaluable insights and take that crucial step towards reclaiming your well-being!
