Controlling the Narrative is often touted as a desirable outcome. But is it? Certainly, when we're experiencing burnout, it has some appeal! We hope - usually in vain - that others will overlook our sketchy performance, surliness and teamwork fails. Perhaps they will give us the benefit of the doubt?In this episode, let's explore the dynamics of controlling the narrative and consider what the alternatives might be. I can recommend a much less stressful way to create a sense of safety -  one that does not rely on the co-operation of others.

Since quitting her own job as a lawyer, Goli Kalkhoran has transitioned to coaching and now hosts the "Lessons from a Quitter" podcast. She helps de-stigmatize quitting and coaches mostly women who are thinking of transitioning their careers to build a more intentional, fulfilling life.I invited Goli on the show because so many clients who come to me in burnout are DYING to quit their jobs. In fact, some have already left. It's worth pausing and deciding your next move with confidence and assurance, for the best possible reasons. Leaving a job simply to escape the suffering of burnout often isn't effective. In working with clients, I often suggest they recover from burnout first, then move.Listen in for Goli's wisdom on how to make the next move successful for you.Show Noteswww.lessonsfromaquitter.com Instagram: @lessonsfromaquitterFreebie: Ready to Quit Your Job?

One of my clients asked me last week how to start giving himself approval. It's a great question, because in burnout we're pretty mean to ourselves and, as a result, constantly seek external approval. A painful quest, huh?So it's helpful to understand this typical burnout pattern and exactly how to resolve it.When performance at work isn't great  and our self-esteem is flat-lining, it's a great time to have our own back. It may sound flippant to "be our best ally", but listen in for how to do it authentically and with a warmth and compassion that actually feels good.Everyone deserves to recover from burnout and feel worthy and cared for. If you're ready to quit burnout and take your leadership skills to the next level, join the Burnout to Leadership program. Prepare for an eye-opening transition from the torture of burnout to a powerful, positive and rewarding future.Let's talk!
