Running a business can get highly stressful. 

Sure it's a lot of fun when you start, and it's very rewarding to see yourself achieve your goals and overcome all the hurdles in your way. 

But as your business continues to grow, your workload naturally gets heavier, your obstacles more challenging, and it feels like there are more and more responsibilities coming your way.

You're stretched thin and unwittingly become the source of any - and maybe all - bottlenecks at work. Entrepreneurial burnout sets in, often hurting one's emotional, mental, and physical well-being. 

So how can you avoid entrepreneurial burnout and manage its impact?

And how can you use it to help you grow into a better and more effective leader?

In this episode of Help! My Business Is Growing; I talk to our guest Priscilla Stephan about entrepreneurial burnout: what it is, what are its signs, and what it's trying to tell you about how you work. 

She gives us tips on how to avoid and overcome burnout and embrace it as an opportunity for reevaluation, realignment, and a repositioning of your role and your role in the business.
