According to the Cambridge Dictionary, if something is on the back burner, it is temporarily not being dealt with or considered, mainly because it is not urgent or essential. Unfortunately, sometimes, we put our health, wellbeing, relationships, and identity on the back burner to prioritize our careers – forgetting we once had thriving lives before work. I call this behavior Toxic Career Back-burnering, or the career-over-everything mentality that stops us from shining and living life to our truest potential.  

The latest Shine SZN episode asks us to consider what we are making time for (and not) and helps us find ways to stir the pots that have been neglected for far too long.
