Description
Most burnout advice focuses on the workday, but what about the first hour of the day? Lucas and Luna examine how chronic exhaustion rewires your morning habits, from hitting snooze to skipping breakfast. They look at the science of cortisol awakening response and how burnout flattens it, plus practical strategies to reclaim your mornings without adding pressure. Specific data: 73 percent of people with high burnout scores report abandoning a consistent morning routine within six months, according to a 2024 ADP Research Institute survey of 18,000 workers. The hosts discuss why willpower isn't the fix and how small environmental cues can restart your brain's wake-up cycle.
