I used to cry after vacations. I’d be sitting in the airport bathroom, in a stupor, dreading going back to work and life as usual. Not that my life or work were bad, I was just so burned out and felt trapped without knowing what to do differently.

If you can relate to this, today’s episode is for you. I break down the reasons why changing your job is almost never the solution and get to the heart of what’s really creating most of the stress and anxiety that makes work unbearable. 

When you can see what the root of your dread is, then you’re able to make gentle changes that not only make work better, but also reduce anxiety and stress in all areas of your life. 

This episode discusses both mindset and nervous system and how the relationship between them can create loops of dread and stress that lead to burnout.

I also discuss two steps to stopping dread at work that help you to see what’s going on in the big picture. These will help you to see your experience in a different way and to find the solutions that will help you feel better.
