Burnout is a state of emotional, physical and mental exhaustion that is caused by prolonged stress.
This stress can be caused by a variety of factors such as parenting, caregiving, relationships, etc.
- What are the signs of burnout am I experiencing? Developing awareness in identifying the signs of burnout is the first step towards addressing it. Whether it’s chronic fatigue, increased anxiety, or decreased productivity, identifying these signs enables us to take proactive measures to safeguard our well-being.
