And after getting back on my feet and finding a new job, just going about things differently, I started noticing and I realized what was going on and that I was burned out. So I started researching burnout and was alarmed. And this was again in 2014, alarmed on the number of cases that I was seeing in burnout in a variety of different sectors, not just healthcare. That was 10 years ago.

Fast forward to today, burnout is worse than it was 10 years ago. And it's impacting our industry. I thought, you know what, I need to start sharing What I'm discovering about burnouts, I started writing about it on a blog and started talking with people about it, started doing little talks at different conferences and things about it.

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.

And then I started interviewing guests and meeting great human beings like yourself and a bunch of people across the planet, which has been great. So it spun off into a consulting, content creation, keynote speaking type of entity that I've been working on for

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.

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
