Today’s episode to get beyond burnout is about resilience. Burnout can be prevented or reversed through cultivating resilience. As a refresher, WHO (world health organization) defines “burnout” as a syndrome resulting from chronic workplace stress that’s characterized by exhaustion or lack of energy, job-related negative or cynical feelings, and reduced effectiveness.

The good news is that psychological resilience can be learned, and research shows that people who report higher resilience are physically healthier, more productive, happier, and have closer relationships. Psychological resilience is defined by the ability to withstand, bounce back, and grow—despite downturns. Simply put it’s how we can be strong and happy even if something bad happens. Some would say its the ability to manage your energy - when you better manage your energy you build resilience and get beyond burnout.
