Takeaways:
Grief and loss can deeply impact and change us, and it is important to reflect on these experiences and their cumulative effects on our outlook on life.
Psychologists and mental health professionals are also human and experience their own ups and downs, and it is important to practice self-care and use the tools and techniques we recommend to our clients.
Breaking down stigma and normalizing conversations about mental health is crucial in order to reach and help more people who may not seek professional help.
Burnout is a combination of mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual exhaustion, and recognizing the symptoms is the first step in managing and preventing it.
Setting boundaries and prioritizing self-care are essential for maintaining mental health and preventing burnout.
Designing a healthy life after burnout involves reflecting on what is truly important to us and incorporating healthy rituals and practices into our daily lives.
Authenticity and shared wisdom are powerful tools in the mental health space, as they create connections and provide valuable insights and support.
