Breaking the Burnout Cycle: Wellness Expert Lindiwe Shayi on Why You Feel Guilty for Taking a Break

Description:
In this vital Wellness Monday segment, host Rethabile Mohlala is joined by resident therapist and CEO of WellnessWithLindz, Lindiwe Shayi, for a crucial conversation about a modern-day epidemic: burnout.

This isn't just about feeling tired; it's about the emotional, mental, and physical exhaustion that cripples productivity and happiness. Lindiwe provides a masterclass in understanding why we push ourselves to the brink and how to finally break the cycle.

We delve into:

The Guilt Trap: Why high performers and leaders feel guilty for pressing pause and how this culture is harming us.

The Red Flags: How to recognize the signs of burnout in yourself—from constant exhaustion and irritability to a loss of passion—before it's too late.

The Prevention Plan: Practical strategies to set healthy boundaries, achieve work-life balance, and give your brain the breather it desperately needs.

Leadership's Role: Why burnout is an organizational issue and how companies can step up to protect their most valuable asset—their people.

Real-World Examples: From midnight emails to setting "out of office" boundaries on holiday, we discuss the critical moments where we must choose ourselves.

If you're a leader, entrepreneur, or anyone feeling the constant pressure to perform, this episode is your first step toward sustainable success and well-being.
