Episode Highlights:

[04:13] Katya’s Burnout Story
Katya became a GP because she was interested in holistic medicine.
It took a long time for her to realise that she was experiencing overwhelming stress. That’s why she kept burning out.
[05:53] Overcoming Perfectionism
We need to have a mental attitude that embraces learning through making mistakes.
We often beat ourselves up even if nobody else knows the right thing to do.
[11:37] Factors That Lead to Burnout
A lot of professionals in high-stress jobs think that stress is normal even if it’s not.
Learn your personal red flags that signal burnout.
Pause, reflect, and listen to yourself and others.
[16:29] Other Warning Signs of Burnout
We stop doing healthy habits such as exercising and sleeping early.
We turn to unhealthy coping responses for a temporary dopamine kick.
We have to be mindful of the reasons behind our unhealthy practices.
Having some form of accountability helps in embedding healthy practices in our lives.
[23:43] Why It’s Difficult to Give Ourselves Permission to Thrive
If your identity is so linked with your job, self-care is more difficult.
We don’t reflect enough on the fact that we are all finite resources.
[33:34] How to Give Yourself Permission to Thrive
Have honest conversations about your struggles.
Reflect by journaling, creative pursuits, or being in nature.
Think about the consequences if you don’t give yourself permission to thrive.

We spend most of our time in the threat or drive zone.
Studies have shown that resting improves cognitive performance and overall well-being.

Give yourself permission to thrive. Pause and think of what you need right now.
Try to deliver on what you need at the moment.
Through this, you teach yourself to look after yourself.
