I'm kicking off our four-part burnout series by sharing my personal journey with burnout after 12 years at Amazon, including what happened when typical solutions like rest and self-care weren't enough.

I break down the difference between burnout and depression, explain why saying "just take a break" isn't the answer, and share the five fundamental areas that actually helped me recover (and still help me stay balanced today).

If you're feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or just "off" lately, this episode offers practical, sustainable solutions that go beyond bubble baths and meditation apps. Plus, I share a game-changing perspective on stress that changed everything for me (hint: it involves chocolate rivers and Oompa Loompas 😉).

Stay tuned for next week's episode where we'll dive deeper into stress cycles and how to manage them before they lead to burnout.
