How To Recognise and Recover From Burnout with Penny Locaso

In today's episode, we delve into the crucial topic of recognising and recovering from burnout. Take a moment to pause and reflect: Have you been stuck in robot mode? Do you feel like you're merely existing rather than truly living? Are you struggling to set boundaries, drowning under an overwhelming to-do list? If you resonate with these questions, you're not alone. Many individuals invest all their energy into striving for perfection and pleasing others, only to end up drained and overwhelmed. The consequence? It becomes almost impossible to experience a genuine connection to purpose. In our second conversation with Penny Locaso, we explore how her journey has evolved, unveiling her wisdom on preventing burnout and sparking joy. Previously, we delved into her book 'Hacking Happiness' and the Art of Intentional Adaptability. Now, Penny has shifted her focus to supporting busy women, empowering them to feel alive and present in their lives again. A quick overview of Penny's expertise: she is an exceptional coach, TEDx and professional speaker, author, Singularity University faculty member, and yoga teacher. Currently pursuing studies in psychology and training with renowned expert Dr. Gabor Maté in Trauma Therapy, Penny brings a wealth of insights to help you navigate the path to well-being and purposeful living. Join us in this insightful conversation on building resilience, setting healthy boundaries, and reigniting the joy in your life.
