Are you “just” stressed, or quietly burning out?

In high-stakes careers, chronic stress can feel normal—even expected. But when left unchecked, it turns into burnout: a state of emotional, mental, and physical depletion that affects your performance, relationships, and health.

In this episode, Dex explores:

The key differences between chronic stress and burnout
How elite professionals unknowingly normalise stress
10 workplace and societal forces that accelerate burnout
The 12 warning signs you're slipping from stress into burnout
Why burnout erodes your relationships—including the one with yourself
What to do when rest and recovery no longer work

If you've lost your spark, your drive, or your confidence—don’t wait. Burnout is not a personal failure. It's a sign you're running out of fuel in a system that never lets up.
