Episode Synopsis

In this episode of Resiliency Redefined, Dr. Robyne sheds light on what burnout really is, why it happens, and how it affects us. She unpacks the three key signs—exhaustion, cynicism, and reduced efficacy—and explains how burnout isn’t about weakness; it’s often the curse of the strong. She also highlights that burnout isn’t only about long hours and heavy workloads—it's the time spent living and working outside of our values that contributes to it. If you find yourself approaching the edges of burnout or deep in it, this conversation will help you take the first steps toward feeling better. Additional Resources: Burnout Part 2: The Rest You Didn't Know You NeededDr. Robyne’s Psychology Today article: Reframing Burnout: 7 Perspective Shifts Get in Touch with Dr. Robyne:  Watch episodes on YouTube Get Dr. Robyne's book: Calm Within The Storm Get Dr. Robyne’s book: Stress Wisely Join Anchor Labs, a collection of digital courses by Dr. Robyne Follow Dr. Robyne on Instagram Follow Dr. Robyne's LinkedIn Visit Drrobyne.ca Sign up to receive new episodes to your inbox every week Disclaimer
