Hustle Culture Burnout - How Chasing Validation is making you Sick (Childhood Trauma Edition)

Описание: Feeling burned out....Well you’re not alone. Burnout has become one of the biggest silent epidemics of our time and the numbers prove it.

✨ NUMBERS DON’T LIE:
77% of professionals say they’ve experienced burnout at their current job. (Deloitte, 2021)
Burnout costs the global economy $322 billion every year in turnover and lost productivity. (WHO)
Nearly 50% of workers end their workday mentally and physically exhausted. (Gallup, 2023)
1 in 4 employees say they lack support from their employer when it comes to stress and mental health. (McKinsey Health Institute, 2022)
Millennials and Gen Z are hit hardest, with over 60% reporting frequent burnout. (Microsoft Work Trend Index, 2022)

Research shows that validation activates the brain’s reward system — it releases dopamine, reinforces our sense of belonging, and motivates us to keep performing (Eisenberger & Lieberman, 2004, Science). So validation is important to human beings and our growth!

So what's the cure to Burnout? Rest! Travel! Healing! Therapy! Time-Off! Mindfulness! Or maybe it is going deeper in your childhood wounds, losses and grief!
