EPISODE 106 [guest] Beating Burnout for Good with Dr. Sharon Grossman

Optimize your life. She’s an international keynote speaker and the founder of the Warrior Institute, but Dr. Sharon Grossman is known as The Burnout Doc. She also hosts the "Decode Your Burnout" podcast and is the best-selling author of “The 7E Solution to Burnout: Transforming High Achievers from Exhausted to Extraordinary.” Needless to say, Sharon is the ideal guest to provide insights about ways to beat burnout – be that through recovery or prevention. For that, we explore how to be productive without overwhelm, boost energy by shifting mindset and transform anxiety into resilience. Whether it’s healthy habits, healthy boundaries or a healthy relationship with yourself – a worthy listen is a you away.

Being my personal story and knowing it could only be narrated by me, I couldn't bring myself to simply read into a mic. Instead, I converted each chapter into episodes of the podcast over time to be more conversational and then strung them back together. Finalized nearly two years after the paperback, I chose not to make it available commercially but rather exclusively in the training courses I'd since developed to help others build the skills to put the Z-isms concepts into practice with lasting effect. As the 5-year anniversary approaches in 2025, it's time to make the audiobook available to everyone. It may well be my proudest achievement to date. ENJOY!
