Why you're feeling so burned out
from KPBS Midday Edition
By definition, burnout is a state of exhaustion resulting from chronic workplace stress. That's according to the World Health Organization. It could mean you're constantly exhausted at work, can't find the motivation for simple tasks, or feel numb and operating on autopilot. When it comes to burnout, there are many signs to look out for. On KPBS Midday Edition, we talk about the root causes of burnout that go beyond the individual. Plus, life as a working parent often feels like a nearly impossible balancing act.
