Jessilyn Persson (00:35)In today's world, it's easy to get caught in the grind, chasing success, meeting deadlines, and pushing harder every day. But what happens when the constant hustle starts costing us our health, happiness, and clarity? In this episode, we're diving into the real connection between stress, burnout, and financial well-being, and how to design a sustainable wealth plan that supports your life instead of draining it. Because true wealth isn't just about the numbers in your bank account. It's about energy, peace and purpose that lasts. So today we want to talk about a few different ideas and share stories of what we've been through because we definitely have experienced some of this throughout our lifetime and ⁓ we realized the cost of what it took to our health and we want to share that with our audience. Brian Persson (01:23)Right. You've experienced burnout. ⁓ I've experienced ⁓ many different symptoms of burnout, maybe not quite burnout in the health way that you experienced it. But we definitely are experienced with ⁓ what sometimes not paying attention to yourself, whether it's emotionally or financially or when it comes to your health can cost you when you're kind of asleep at the wheel and you're not really taking care of yourself. Jessilyn Persson (01:52)Yeah, so the hidden cost of hustle. That's the first one we're going to touch on today. How stress and burnout, it can derail your financial goals and you sometimes don't even realize it til it's too late. Nope. You know, this is big myth, especially here in ⁓ Canada, probably the States and some other countries where the grind culture, you just got to go, go, go, go, go, go, go, you know, put in 10 hours, 12 hours a day and thinking you can do that onward and upwards for decades on end and are not realizing when you're young and full of energy, you can do it, but you don't realize what that's doing for your future body. Brian Persson (02:31)Yeah, we talk a lot about the choose your heart. Yeah. So you can choose your heart as in you can work out today so that you don't have to be going to the doctor every other day when you're older. That's one of those ways that you can choose your heart. ⁓ Eat healthy today so that you don't have to deal with all the health issues that you would be experiencing later on in life. And you can also manage your time and your energy today so that you don't have to experience the stresses that would have caused you in that burnout scenario. Jessilyn Persson (03:06)Yeah, that's tough. ⁓ Manage, you know, you say your time, your deliverables, but if that's not how we're raised and how we're taught, that's a hard lesson to try and learn and I know that because that's... That's how I grew up on the farm. Like it was always go, go, go. My mom to this day, almost 70, still go, go, go. Even though her health isn't there to support her to do that, she tries and does not connect the dots that when she's suddenly out for three weeks, several times a year, if she maybe didn't push as hard during those other times, she wouldn't be down as long. And I mean, I had that. I had that until my burnout in 2019. And I can't say I don't default, I do. You know, this year I had a lot of stacked deliverables come my way and lot of asks from work and took me a little time to realize that I lost my boundaries, I'd let them go. And I had to learn to kind of push back and the funny thing is... The one I had to push back on was me. wasn't my clients. It was me thinking I had to deliver more, more, more, more, more. And you were the one who had several conversations with me to say like, Jess, like, whose expectations are these? Are they yours or are they ...
