Beating Burnout For Influencers And Everyone Else, With Dr. Habib Sadeghi

This week, I moderated a panel on work and mental health for Soul Pancake's "Four Conversations About One Thing," a series of discussions tied to  Mental Health Awareness Month. My panelists included actor Romany Malco (A Million Little Things, Weeds), Internet and radio star Shira Lazar, Quibi head of people operations Denise Jackson and Dr. Habib Sadeghi. This podcast, I talk about dealing with burnout, a huge issue for online influencers especially, and a discussion that comes just as the World Health Organization has officially added work-related "burn-out" to its handbook of recognized illnesses and conditions. Separately, I speak with Dr. Sadeghi about some of his prescriptions for building a more balanced and centered life amid all the challenges we face out there in this fractured digital age. If you're in tech or entertainment, or really any high-pressure business, there's lots here worth checking out. Give it a listen.
