TED Talks Daily · Feeling stressed? The answer isn’t to “just relax” | Aditi Nerurkar · 28 Apr 2025 podcast

Resilience.

What's interesting about resilience and the relationship between resilience and burnout.

is that resilience is protective against burnout, but it is not preventative against burnout.

Because there is something called the resilience myth, which is that resilient people don't get burned out.

And when I share some of the data, so 70% of people have at least one feature of stress and burnout.

And this is a global snapshot.

And over the past few years, about 74% of people across industry, these are industry-wide statistics, say the last few years have been the most difficult of their professional careers.

And when you look at a room of 30 people, that's like saying 21 people are struggling with stress and burnout.

And so I shared some of that data to say that resilience, the true scientific definition, it's your innate biological ability.

So we all have it.

And yet

It's that we are seeing these high rates of burnout because resilience, while it's protective, it's not enough to prevent burnout.

And that resilience myth is also something that I am hoping that we can dismantle here today.

and really remove that onus of responsibility of building resilience and creating resilience away from individuals.

Yes, we are going to talk about many ways that we can build individual resilience, but we also have to remove that onus of responsibility away from individuals and back to the systems that are meant to support us because people are resilient.

It's the systems that burn us out.

So, you know, I had that acutely debilitating experience of stress when I was a medical trainee, that stampede of wild horses.

And I have never had an acutely debilitating experience of stress like that.

intensity again.

However, I have had lots of experiences of stress over the years, acute and chronic and everything in between because, you know, life happens.
