Burnout to Recovery Experience: Business Owner, Husband and Father
Episode 18 of Burnout: A Different Kind of GAP Year Podcast brings you the burnout to recovery experience of a business owner, husband and father, Glen.
Looking back at his burnout experience with the wisdom he now has from his recovery offers you a unique perspective of the signs that contributed to his burnout, things he didn't or couldn't see at the time. Things like not resting, not prioritising self-care, pushing through, doing it on his own, and not setting boundaries, to name a few.
It took hitting 'rock bottom' at a point of hopelessness and a timely Facebook advert to send him on his road to recovery and beyond to where he is now, thriving.

From The Podcast
When Burnout Becomes Reality
About the PodcastWhen Burnout Becomes Reality is a podcast that combines lived experience with the science of burnout to help listeners prevent, recover & grow from burnout. I am your host, Shannon Swales, a psychologist, blogger, author, & a human with lived experience, scientific knowledge, & skills on burnout. Burnout is a phenomenon that develops slowly in an individual in response to ongoing & unrelenting workplace interpersonal stressors. Social Psychologist Christina Maslach and Human Resource Management Professor & Researcher Susan E. Jackson identified a set of symptoms & signs of burnout that is mainly accepted today. They are emotional exhaustion, cynicism/depersonalisation towards one's work, & a decrease in one's belief one can do their job or a reduced sense of personal achievement with one's work. Burnout can occur in any field, particularly those working closely with vulnerable people. It appears not only in workplaces but also within parenting, carer, volunteering, & caring for self roles in chronic & ongoing health conditions that require ongoing management.Development of the PodcastI started this POD out of my own burnout experience. I noticed how great it felt to hear others were suffering from burnout too - it helped me feel less alone. It helped me to feel understood & unbeknownst to them; it helped me learn from the wisdom they had gained to help me recover & grow from burnout. This is why I continue to showcase lived experience guests on the POD. As I healed from burnout, I moved back into my work as a psychologist, & that is when I added the scientific knowledge aspect into the POD, having expert guests share their wisdom to help others. I am incredibly proud of this POD & enjoy every minute of producing it. It is a monthly podcast with an episode released on the first Thursday of every month. Each month will showcase a lived experience guest who courageously comes on the POD to share their raw account of burnout to recovery and beyond or an expert guest who shares their knowledge & skills in burnout. All hope to assist others in preventing, responding & growing from burnout. The only way this podcast will reach the four corners of this earth, to reach people in need is through the power of the people - you. So, you can pay it forward by liking, sharing, following, reviewing or leaving a comment. I will be forever grateful for your generosity in doing so.Share Your StoryIf you’d like to share your burnout-to-recovery experience or are an expert working in the field of burnout syndrome & would like to share your wisdom, please email me at shannonswales@burnoutpsychologysupport.com or call 61+ 422 695 576ConnectSocial Media: Instagram: www.instagram.com/burnoutpsychologysupport Facebook: www.facebook.com/burnoutpsychologysupport Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/shannonswalesEmail: shannonswales@burnoutpsychologysupport.comBusiness Website: www.burnoutpsychologysupport.comMy Book: https://www.burnoutpsychologysupport.com/buy-my-bookDisclaimer: Engaging with our content does not intend to create, nor does it create a therapist-client relationship between you & Shannon Swales, Burnout Psychology Support Psychologist.
