And then a colleague of mine said, you know what, you probably have a consulting business here. That's what I did. I said, okay, let's launch this. And then that led to another colleague saying, launch podcasts and share tidbits on how to prevent burnout. And that's how the original format of my show was for the first year or so.

now seven years or actually closer to eight and it's been both very enjoyable but also very sad because nothing would make me happier than for burnout to go away and I don't need to you know talk about it or work with people on it or anything like that I'm thankful that I have the opportunity to but I wish I didn't have to because they wouldn't you know because they're not burned out

Oh, I definitely agree. It doesn't matter what, as you said, what demographic you're from, your gender, where you're from, what type of work you do, the career, anything like that. It doesn't matter. It attacks you. And it's one of those things that time and time again, I see it. And over the last few years on my keynote talks, I've and keep track of where I speak, and I always have the industry.

I've spoke legal, education, farming, insurance, finance, retail, manufacturing, nonprofit, for-profit, every industry, you name it. So, yep, I've done something for them, whether it's been a Fortune 500 company or... an independent insurance organization outside of Boston or a talk for European leaders. It doesn't matter. Burnout hits everybody.

And it's one of those things that even the World Health Organization recognized burnout as a workplace phenomenon back in 2018 or 2019, prior to all their work with the pandemic. And for them to recognize burnout is a huge issue globally brought to light, okay, this is not something that's just a thing that's in style right now. This is legitimately a problem for people and

Yeah, you hit it right on the head when it comes to C-suite executives and C-suite leaders having a difficult time because of the stigma of burnout. There's a mental health component to it. Actually, a lot of people do in talks and things like that. They'll ask burnout, especially with the science and all that. It sounds a lot like depression.
