Episode description

We’re facing a burnout epidemic that goes beyond work. Understanding its causes can help us fix it.

A 2021 Indeed survey shows 52% of 1,500 American respondents say they feel burned out, compared with 43% the year prior; 67% believe that burnout worsened during the COVID-19 pandemic.

That’s not surprising.
