Work has a way of following us home—replaying that one frustrating meeting, stealing our attention from the people we love, and turning Sunday night into a countdown to stress. In this conversation with psychologist Guy Winch, we talk about why switching off feels so hard, and what actually helps when work starts to take over your life.We get practical about breaking rumination, handling that end-of-weekend dread, protecting your energy, and staying in that “just enough stress” zone where you can still function without burning out. This is the first half of a two-part conversation. In this one, we’re focused on your professional life; next week, we’ll dive into burnout in your love life.---►► Preorder your copy of Dr. Guy Winch’s new book Mind Over Grind (which will arrive in bookstores on Feb. 10) at guywinch.com/books/mind-over-grind►► Head to CozyEarth.com before February 8 and use my code LOVELIFEBOGO to get PJs for you and someone you love.►► Ask me anything at AskMH.com—try it for free to get instant answers now via voice or text.
