Description

“Proving yourself, working harder, taking care of the business first, and believing that the business will take care of you instead of taking care of ourselves are shown to be the root cause of burnout.”

In this Future of Work episode, host Rebecca takes the mic solo to peel back the layers on collective global reflections sparked by the pandemic and confronting the unwelcome guest at our societal table: burnout.

Rebecca challenges the deeply ingrained notions of success as we contemplate how the pressure to constantly prove and push ourselves is sowed even in the innocence of childhood. This episode confronts the uncomfortable truths about our parenting, our workplace culture, and the hollow victory of accolades over authentic well-being.


In this episode, you’ll learn:

  1. Honor the unique value that each individual brings to an organization to effect positive change in the world
  2. Working harder and putting business first are the root causes of burnout - shift this mindset to one that prioritizes self-care and internal growth
  3. The focus on future of work should be on deeper systemic changes rather than just the physical location of where work is done

Things to listen for:

[06:09 ] Don’t neglect personal well-being and joy

[07:51 ] The social aspect of sports can overshadow competition

[11:38 ] Combat burnout and redefine success with authentic self-care

[15:35 ] Set boundaries for yourself

[17:53 ] Reflect on habits, beliefs and nurture kids wisely.
