Do you ever leave work feeling completely drained, not because of the workload but because of the people?
In this week's episode of Overcaffeinated and Out of Effs I'm joined by communication speaker and trainer, Kelly Lippenholz, who shares her own journey of returning to the workforce after years as a stay-at-home mom. Like so many other working moms, she found herself emotionally depleted by challenging interactions with coworkers and realized that burnout made navigating those relationships even harder.
Instead of accepting that stress as "just part of the job," Kelly set out to understand why some people felt so difficult to work with. What she learned about communication styles, motivations, and human behavior completely changed the way she interacted with others and ultimately helped reduce her stress, improve her relationships and protect her own well-being.
In this conversation, we talk about why difficult people feel even more difficult when you're already burned out, how understanding different communication styles can change the way you respond to conflict, and practical strategies you can use to protect your energy both at work and at home.
In this episode we discuss:
- Why dealing with difficult people can be one of the biggest contributors to workplace burnout
- How burnout affects your nervous system and makes conflict feel even more overwhelming
- Why understanding communication styles can transform your relationships
- The biggest misconceptions we have about “difficult” people
- Practical ways to communicate more effectively without sacrificing your own well-being
