Episode 12
In this episode, Michelle brings up the B-word: burnout. But instead of focusing on the symptoms of burnout, she concentrates on what leads to burnout: a never-ending stress cycle. She will talk about her recent experience of a looping stress cycle and what you can do to end a stress cycle.
In this episode, she talks about being a good boss to yourself. She talked about this at length in episode 2: Who's the Boss? She also brought up her "walk-to-commute" challenge from the See Also segment of episode 2.
