Understanding Burnout

Burnout is defined as a pervasive feeling of being overwhelmed and exhausted, not just physically but emotionally and mentally.

Recognizing burnout involves identifying signs such as emotional fatigue, emotional detachment, and symptoms that vary across individual experiences. The discussion emphasizes that burnout can arise even when one is seemingly productive, impacting the quality of one’s life and decision-making.
