Guy Winch Introduces Mind Over Grind

Burnout isn’t you being “unmotivated.” It’s your brain and body stuck in survival mode — and most people try to fix it with advice that doesn’t actually work.

In this episode, clinical psychologist Guy Winch breaks down what burnout really is, why “just take a break” often fails, and the simple resets that help you get your energy, focus, and patience back.

Here’s what you’ll learn:

• Why modern work stress keeps creeping into your life

• The stress “sweet spot” (and what happens when you go past it)

• Why doom-scrolling feels like rest… but drains you more

• How to take breaks that restore you instead of numbing you
