Burnout is a significant global issue, with productivity losses reaching over $300 billion annually, with the United States leading these statistics. But what if burnout isn’t just a work problem? What if it's a sign that you’ve become disconnected from yourself, your family, and the stuff that makes you feel alive?
In this episode, I sit down with Patrice Bonfiglio, author of The Burnout Imperative, to discuss the hidden toxicity of modern work culture and why so many people feel trapped in a cycle of stress, exhaustion, and constant productivity. Patrice shares her experience with burnout and what she discovered about the connection between leadership, purpose, creativity, and sustainable success.
We also explore how burnout can show up at home, especially for parents who carry the mental load of family life. We talk about reconnecting with your children, creating space for fun and creativity, sharing responsibilities, and using technology like AI to reduce (not increase) your mental burden. Finally, we discuss what it means to stop simply “doing” and start living again.
If this episode resonated with you, share it with someone who needs to hear this message.
“We need to feel alive when we’re working, even if it's Monday."
