Dr. Jessi Gold joins Dr. Marc Brackett on Dealing with Feeling to explore why so many people feel overwhelmed right now—and how burnout can masquerade as anxiety in a high-pressure world.

They discuss how to tell the difference between burnout and anxiety, why emotion regulation matters for long-term mental health, and what practical strategies can help you navigate stress at work and at home without powering through at the cost of your well-being.

In this conversation

• How burnout can look and feel like anxiety
• The difference between overwhelm, stress, and anxiety
• Why emotion regulation is a skill, not a personality trait
• Practical strategies for building resilience in demanding environments
