Listen "How do different generations experience burnout?"
Episode Synopsis
I often get asked if burnout is more prevalent now that it has been in the past. The truth? It depends on how you look at it.
Answering this question isn’t as simple as looking at the data and saying “yes” or “no”. There are many contributory factors for burnout that have evolved over time, but there are also changes in our society and the expectations we have for each other. There’s also changes in how we’re raised, the circumstances we’re living in, and how our world is being built to support us…or not.
This leads to a really important discussion about how the year we’re born can impact our risk and experience of burnout. No, I’m not talking about some woo-woo astrological something or other - I’m talking about generation gaps.
