Burnout is real and not talked about enough. Rather, you are praised and even admired when you run yourself ragged and can’t function anymore. It seems like the American dream translates into how much you can work, achieve, and acquire. But Audra and Coach Margaretrose are here to remind you that life is not all about getting more and more “stuff” and ask you to examine why you are feeling so burnt out. Are you trying to keep up with the Joneses, or are you trying to evolve and level up to a better version of yourself?

Tune in and don’t miss The Goldfish Affect's tips for stepping back, preventing burnout, and how to cope when you feel left to ashes. 

KEY POINTS:

- Why burnout exists when you are not aligned with your dream  

- How to prevent burnout - coping mechanisms

QUOTABLES:

“There's two sides to burnout, right? There's one side that's very unhealthy. That is, you're pushing yourself through stress and anxiety and almost to a breaking point to attain something that's not worth it. And then there's burnout that happens when you are leveling up. And you are pushing yourself into your most uncomfortable position in an effort to learn and grow and evolve.”

“Life isn't just made up of making a whole lot of money and capitalism. It's about enjoying the process of living in life and relationships.”
