Summary

I just found one of the best (!!!) explanations I've heard for why we shouldn't do our "best", and I wanted to share it with you, as the whole concept of "Doing your best" has been on my mind lately and annoys me more than it should. Join me for a lovely capacity rant (feel free to check out episode 19 about The Energy Budget if you want even more context for that!) and the referenced reel "How to stop burnout" was by @mind.psy.guidance on instagram, run by Morgan Starr-Riestis.
