Listen "Rethinking Burnout: The Power of Energy Management with Avery Thatcher"

Episode Synopsis

In this episode, I talk with Avery Thatcher, burnout specialist and former ICU nurse, about rethinking stress management, recovering from burnout, and building sustainable energy resilience.
 
We discuss:


Why managing energy works better than managing stress—and what most strategies get wrong.


The four types of energy and how they each lead to burnout.


How burnout is shaped by larger societal pressures, not just personal choices.


Challenge: At [00:49:22], Avery shares her challenge to rethink your morning routine. Instead of a rigid to-do list, focus on how you want to feel and choose actions that align with creating that foundation.
