What’s the difference between burnout and extreme tiredness? Have you heard Gen Alpha’s adorable period slang? And why does my foot feel like it’s ringing?
In this episode, clinical psychologist Shuktika Bose talks about how to identify, treat and recover from burnout. We also discuss rejuvenating rest versus doomscrolling, the need to set better boundaries at work and why it’s important to complete your stress cycle.
Also, why do women burnout faster? Raise your hand if you identify with “Human Giver Syndrome”.
