Simple Tips to Support Yourself: How can I prevent myself from burnout?

This episode answers the question: How do I prevent myself from burnout? We chatted with burnout coach and therapist Abbey Sangmeister about recognizing and preventing burnout, a state of overwhelm and anxiety that stems from trying to do it all without pause. Abbey explains that burnout often manifests as frustration and exhaustion from nonstop activity. To avoid it, she emphasizes the importance of creating an ideal schedule that includes intentional time for oneself and learning to say no to commitments that don’t align with personal priorities. Abbey also highlights the value of taking regular breaks and giving yourself permission to rest as a proactive strategy for maintaining balance. For those already experiencing burnout, Abbey recommends clearing space in your schedule, cutting back on non-essential activities, and reaching out for support from trusted friends, family, or professionals. Virtual therapy and coaching, she shares, can be a powerful resource for recovery, providing guidance and accountability in overcoming burnout. Abbey's practical advice offers hope and tools for reclaiming calm, balance, and well-being in our often chaotic lives.
