Полная расшифровка выпуска Burnout Proof with Daniela Wolf

00:02:06.000 --> 00:02:12.159 As well as I think they were just looking for that validation and permission that it's okay to take that time for ourselves. 00:02:12.319 --> 00:02:30.319 And so that kind of began my own personal journey, as well as helping, you know, professionals and everybody realize, you know, that they can take charge of their work life and well-being without needing to feel like they're compromising or sacrificing and seeing how they can start that transformation for themselves. 00:02:30.960 --> 00:02:37.840 Yes, that is amazing because you know, um, burnout, it became recognized as like a legit medical condition. 00:02:37.920 --> 00:02:42.319 It's not just like a woo-woo thing people talk about like this is, you know, in the books. 00:02:42.560 --> 00:02:52.640 Um, and if you don't take control of the situation, burnout will take control of you and you will end up not being able to do anything. 00:02:53.599 --> 00:03:01.360 You know, um, because it really does break you, like a mindset thing, a physical thing, like not being able to get out of bed, not being able to eat. 00:03:01.520 --> 00:03:04.640 Like it's it's exhausting. 00:03:04.800 --> 00:03:05.840 It's so many things. 00:03:06.000 --> 00:03:10.800 And then you're just kind of, you know, you feel like you're digging yourself into this hole because you haven't been able to do anything. 00:03:10.879 --> 00:03:14.960 And so the to-dos are piling up at the laundry and the kitchen, and there's so many things. 00:03:15.200 --> 00:03:18.560 And so how do we, because you know, life continues, right? 00:03:18.640 --> 00:03:20.640 Like you're burning out, but life continues. 00:03:20.800 --> 00:03:25.520 People still gotta go to school, go to work, you know, um, have dinner, like people have to eat. 00:03:25.599 --> 00:03:28.400 And so how do we, how do we avoid all of that? 00:03:28.560 --> 00:03:32.319 Um, so I, you know, you we were talking about 10 minutes. 00:03:32.480 --> 00:03:34.159 So can we talk a little bit maybe about that? 00:03:34.240 --> 00:03:35.280 Or you lead it. 00:03:35.360 --> 00:03:36.480 You tell me where we go. 00:03:36.800 --> 00:03:40.640 But actually, you know, like you said, how do we how do we get in the way of burnout? 00:03:40.719 --> 00:03:48.719 How do we help kind of disrupt that pattern and definitely that awareness of recognizing and sometimes, you know, just understanding there's so many different ways it can show up. 00:03:48.879 --> 00:03:49.280 Absolutely. 00:03:49.360 --> 00:03:53.360 It can look like, you know, not functioning, staying out of bed, constantly exhausting. 00:03:53.520 --> 00:04:04.480 It can also look like high achieving, checking all the boxes, doing all the things, but in a way that still leaves you feeling drained, unfulfilled, like you're just not meeting the mark. 00:04:04.640 --> 00:04:11.520 A lot of times they've actually done studies that have shown following your passions can actually set you up for burnout more

than something you don't like. 00:04:11.599 --> 00:04:13.039 And that's something people don't realize. 00:04:13.120 --> 00:04:15.920 They think, oh, you know, it's I'm just not happy at my job. 00:04:16.079 --> 00:04:17.120 I'm not happy in this area. 00:04:17.199 --> 00:04:21.279 But you think about the things you don't like, that's where you put good boundaries in place. 00:04:21.360 --> 00:04:27.120 You know, five o'clock comes, you're like, bye, I'm out of here, versus something where you're following your passions. 00:04:27.280 --> 00:04:30.959 It could be a job, a business, it could be your kids, it could be a relationship. 00:04:31.120 --> 00:04:38.480 And those are things sometimes we toss our boundaries out the window and can again lead to that imbalance that can cause burnout. 00:04:38.639 --> 00:04:51.600 You think, you know, I remember having a conversation with a friend and she's like, you know, was a new mom and she's like, You're my first adult conversation in two days because she was so all in on her kids, or sometimes in a new relationship, you might not see your friends as much. 00:04:51.840 --> 00:04:54.800 You might, you know, put off other things because you put all your energy there. 00:04:54.879 --> 00:05:02.240 So recognizing how important your boundaries are for work-life balance, you know, when I talk about work-life balance, it's not about everything being equal. 00:05:02.480 --> 00:05:03.759 Like you said, that's not realistic. 00:05:03.840 --> 00:05:17.360 You've got jobs, you've got school, you've got kids, you've got friends, you've got things to do, you know, but it's about being able to have a harmony between them all in a way that works and flows best for you. 00:05:17.519 --> 00:05:26.240 And so when I talk about balance, like I said, it's not everything being equal, but it's how you adapt, pivot, have resilience, and then those boundaries. 00:05:26.399 --> 00:05:39.360 Boundaries are like my favorite B-word because they not only help protect your time and energy, but they give back to everybody else around you by knowing when you're available, by helping you to show up at your best. 00:05:39.600 --> 00:05:45.120 And you know, you know, you talked about doing it in in small micro moments, in blocks, 10-minute blocks. 00:05:45.439 --> 00:05:57.439 And so when I in when I help clients, when I do these corporate trainings, and you can read all about it in my book, Balance Breakthrough, I outline these three main pillars of how you're gonna start to implement this. 00:05:57.519 --> 00:06:02.079 And it involves looking at your mindset, your time planning, and then your self-care. 00:06:02.160 --> 00:06:06.000 And I'm not talking about fluffied things, you know, luxuries. 00:06:06.160 --> 00:06:17.360 A lot of times people just assume it's spa days and massages and getaways, which are great, but that's not sustainable on a day-to-day basis, you know, and you wouldn't like eat on Sunday and not think you're gonna be starving by Tuesday. 00:06:17.519 --> 00:06:21.439 You can't practice self-care once on the weekend and think you're good for the entire week. 00:06:21.600 --> 00:06:42.639 And so I teach very practical self-care strategies that you can implement in small micro moments, everything from how you eat, how you sleep, how you move, how you dress, how you decorate and organize your home, how you connect with others, how you think about money, as well as that traditional personal development like meditation, mindfulness, journaling, gratitude, those types of practices. 00:06:42.879 --> 00:06:49.920 And, you know, when we see these practices, they can be as small as one minute, 30 seconds, 10 minutes. 00:06:50.079 --> 00:07:07.920 And like you said, I have a free resource on my website called the Reclaim Your Time and 10 Minute Box Cheat Sheet that gives you over 20 ideas of not only how to carve out those 10 minutes, but how to spend them because you need to have a plan of how you're going to use that time, or else it's so easy to get sucked into so many other things. 00:07:08.079 --> 00:07:13.439 And so just recognizing, you know, the way they all synergistically work together. 00:07:14.480 --> 00:07:14.959 I love that. 00:07:16.879 --> 00:07:17.680 I love that. 00:07:17.759 --> 00:07:21.439 Um, because there those pockets of time are so valuable. 00:07:21.600 --> 00:07:23.519 Sometimes you just have 10 minutes, you know. 00:07:23.600 --> 00:07:30.319 One of the things that I like to to um, you know, talk about is I like to quote unquote race the coffee pot. 00:07:31.199 --> 00:07:40.879 Um, you know, so I I will put on a pot of coffee and I'm like, okay, how can I use the few minutes in between, you know, like while it's brewing and whatnot, like can I clean up the kitchen? 00:07:41.040 --> 00:07:42.160 Can I wipe down the counters? 00:07:42.319 --> 00:08:00.800 Can I just and then it takes just a set amount of time because like when you're neurodivergent, you know, like you can look at it at the dishes or you can look at that, you know, that post that you have to write, or you can look at whatever, and it kind of like swells up and it looks like you're like, oh my God, this is gonna take me, this is gonna take me years. 00:08:02.079 --> 00:08:09.120 You know, and like consciously, you know, it doesn't make sense, but somewhere in there, it just it becomes this overwhelming thing. 00:08:09.280 --> 00:08:14.079 And so when you set that 10-minute boundary, just like you were talking about the boundaries, right? 00:08:14.160 --> 00:08:23.439 Like our own self-boundaries, I give myself 10 minutes to work on this, you know, we can focus in on what's most important, just knock out the biggest thing. 00:08:23.519 --> 00:08:25.199 What can we do with these 10 minutes? 00:08:25.360 --> 00:08:27.280 Um, and it's it's measurable. 00:08:27.360 --> 00:08:29.040 Uh I'm out of here in 10 minutes. 00:08:29.199 --> 00:08:34.240 I don't have to, I don't have to stay, I

don't have to, you know, like commit for an hour or a week. 00:08:34.399 --> 00:08:38.559 This is a 10-minute thing, and I can I can survive 10 minutes. 00:08:38.799 --> 00:08:39.120 Yeah. 00:08:39.279 --> 00:08:40.959 Yeah, even scale it down. 00:08:41.120 --> 00:08:48.720 I'd love to start people on a one-minute self-care practice, even where you set a reminder to go off on your phone and you might put that in for like four or five times a day. 00:08:48.879 --> 00:08:54.320 And then when it goes off, you just set a timer for one minute and you don't scroll on social media, you don't go do anything else. 00:08:54.399 --> 00:09:03.039 You just sit, you might focus on your breathing and do some box breathing, which is four seconds in, four second hold, four second exhale, another four second hold. 00:09:03.200 --> 00:09:11.200 You might do some shoulder shrugs, you might drink some water, you know, even just looking outside and doing some mindfulness practice, noticing your senses. 00:09:11.440 --> 00:09:22.320 Studies have shown that just that one minute starts to lower your cortisol levels, starts to lower your heart rate, your stress levels, as well as you get the dopamine hit of setting a goal and achieving it. 00:09:22.399 --> 00:09:28.480 So you look at you have that reminder going off five times a day, you know, have a five-minute self-care practice every single day, you know. 00:09:28.639 --> 00:09:31.600 And maybe at the end of one minute, you're like, you know what, I got two minutes. 00:09:31.679 --> 00:09:36.480 I'm gonna go walk to the mailbox and back, you know, and it's just these small micro moments. 00:09:36.639 --> 00:09:40.000 You look at, you know, our phones, we recharge them throughout our day. 00:09:40.080 --> 00:09:43.200 We constantly look at the battery level to make sure we're okay. 00:09:43.360 --> 00:09:48.799 And that's a lot of self-care, you know, it's not just about being called and zen, it's about being energized. 00:09:48.960 --> 00:09:54.960 It's about building your confidence, it's about the energy that you bring to everybody in the spaces around you. 00:09:55.120 --> 00:10:01.519 And so by putting in these little recharges throughout your day is what's going to help you stay in that place. 00:10:02.399 --> 00:10:05.200 Yeah, and those things really bring you into the moment. 00:10:05.360 --> 00:10:09.200 Like everything that you're talking about is just bringing you to the here and now. 00:10:09.360 --> 00:10:13.600 You're not, you know, reminiscing in the past and getting all sad. 00:10:14.399 --> 00:10:19.679 You're not, you know, like planning and and scheming for the future and getting all anxious. 00:10:19.840 --> 00:10:26.960 You're bringing everything back to I'm here, I'm now, I'm safe, I'm breathing, I'm looking outside, I'm enjoying this moment. 00:10:27.279 --> 00:10:35.120 Um, yeah, and and we can get so lost in in the, you know, in the well, what do I have to do in 30 minutes? 00:10:35.279 --> 00:10:37.840 Well, I have to pick up, you know, oh, I have something to do at two. 00:10:38.000 --> 00:10:39.360 I have to go pick someone up. 00:10:39.519 --> 00:10:42.960 So, oh, I, you know, and we get stuck in these little things. 00:10:43.120 --> 00:10:55.759 And so doing something as simple, and I I just say it like that because, you know, like you mentioned gratitude practice, and that was one of the things that really I anchored on to. 00:10:56.080 --> 00:11:01.279 And it took me a while because I would tell myself, this is too easy, it's too simple. 00:11:01.440 --> 00:11:08.000 Like, I I you know, like you when you learn like complicated math, and then somebody asks you to just do some addition, and you're like, no, no, there's a trick. 00:11:08.080 --> 00:11:10.879 Like, what's you know, like what's going on here? 00:11:11.039 --> 00:11:12.320 This is too simple. 00:11:12.480 --> 00:11:23.919 Um, and so it's these tiny little things though, the ones that seem too simple to really, you know, like you're you're telling us to stop and think, just stop and think, but just breathe, just breathe, you know? 00:11:24.159 --> 00:11:24.960 Just breathe, yeah. 00:11:25.360 --> 00:11:34.320 Simple is gonna be the most sustainable when something is hard, that's where we can get a lot of those obstacles, you know, when it comes to how am I gonna fit this in, what am I gonna do? 00:11:34.480 --> 00:11:35.679 It takes too much time. 00:11:35.840 --> 00:11:42.799 The simple is gonna be the easiest to do on repeat, and consistency beats complicated every single time. 00:11:43.039 --> 00:11:51.759 And so just knowing that by doing these small, simple practices throughout your day, it is where you're gonna make have that impact. 00:11:51.919 --> 00:11:58.320 Even though, you know, as you start to do the things, then you'll kind of see how that mindset piece comes in because that's where some of the obstacles are. 00:11:58.399 --> 00:12:00.799 They're not real, they're just in your head. 00:12:00.960 --> 00:12:02.639 You know, I don't have time for this. 00:12:02.799 --> 00:12:04.560 People are gonna think I'm being lazy. 00:12:04.720 --> 00:13:14.799 You know, all those stories we tell ourselves, that's a lot of that mindset work and letting go of those limiting beliefs so that the actions you take actually have impact rather than, like you said, sitting there ruminating, thinking about what's next, worrying, all those kind of things by tying in your mindset, then with your time planning where we're prioritizing what needs to happen and blocking these micro moments and adding that is how they all flow together. 00:13:15.439 --> 00:13:16.240 I love that. 00:13:16.480 --> 00:13:18.240 And so you did mention gratitude. 00:13:18.399 --> 00:13:26.720 Talk to me a little bit more about that and how you established it as a practice, and then talk to me about you know the results. 00:13:26.799 --> 00:13:28.319 What did you see come from that? 00:13:28.480 -->

00:13:32.559 Like what flowers came from, you know, from that gardening effort, so to speak. 00:13:32.799 --> 00:13:34.000 Yeah, I love gratitude. 00:13:34.159 --> 00:13:36.319 It started, like I said, a simple little practice. 00:13:36.399 --> 00:13:41.600 I had this little journal next to my bed, and every night I would just write three to five things I was grateful for. 00:13:41.679 --> 00:13:48.960 And and it's it we put so much pressure on it has to be these big things, but by focusing on, you know, maybe the sun was out today. 00:13:49.120 --> 00:13:52.480 I live in the northeast, and so winters can be very dark and gray. 00:13:52.639 --> 00:13:54.319 Maybe someone held the door for me. 00:13:54.480 --> 00:14:11.679 Maybe I had my favorite banana smoothie, you know, being able to find those little moments that made me smile, that brought me some joy, just those little moments start to stack on themselves because we realize, you know, they say where our focus is is where we tend to look. 00:14:11.759 --> 00:14:13.919 It actually, there's there's science behind that as well. 00:14:14.159 --> 00:14:18.240 It activates a part of our brain called the RAS, the reticular activating system. 00:14:18.559 --> 00:14:22.000 You ever you know, think you're gonna go car shopping, you're like, I'm gonna get a red minivan. 00:14:22.240 --> 00:14:24.639 And all of a sudden you start seeing red minivans everywhere. 00:14:24.720 --> 00:14:31.600 And it's not that there's more of them, it's just that it's turned on a part of your brain to actually start noticing them more often. 00:14:31.679 --> 00:14:33.759 And gratitude kind of works the same way. 00:14:33.919 --> 00:14:44.240 Once we intentionally start thinking about what was good today, what made me happy, what brought me joy, those little moments, you start noticing them everywhere. 00:14:44.399 --> 00:14:47.919 And they start just kind of popping up and stacking on themselves. 00:14:48.159 --> 00:14:56.799 And so it can be very easy to fall into a trap of, you know, having a great day, one thing goes wrong, and it's like you unpack and stay there in the whole day's shot. 00:14:56.960 --> 00:15:08.960 But with gratitude, it helps to give yourself that grace of being able to let those moments come in and out as well as see how many good things we really do have going on as well. 00:15:09.200 --> 00:15:24.879 And if bad things happen, you know, if you're having a hard time, a hard day, to be able to go back to that, to go back to those moments, to maybe even sit in those feelings again a little bit can help pull you out and build what I like to call mental fitness. 00:15:24.960 --> 00:15:43.759 It's you know, just the way we the same way we build our physical fitness, building our mental fitness, building our resilience through gratitude and other practices is a great way to help, when I said with that balance, you know, having that resilience, help you bounce back so that you can handle life's ups and downs and all the things that keep happening. 00:15:44.240 --> 00:15:45.200 Yes, I love that. 00:15:45.279 --> 00:15:51.439 I I wrote about that in my book, um, with the you know, with the cars and how you you start looking for them. 00:15:51.679 --> 00:16:06.319 And one of the things that I talk about all the time is how gratitude in your brain, it's not a muscle, but it kind of works like a muscle in that if you don't use it, it kind of, you know, it's there, but it doesn't work. 00:16:06.480 --> 00:16:15.679 Like if you don't use your legs, you know, like if someone is in the hospital, they can't walk for a really long time, they try to walk, they're gonna have to relearn because the muscles, you know, they don't remember. 00:16:15.759 --> 00:16:17.200 They need to be able to carry that. 00:16:17.279 --> 00:16:22.559 But the only way to do that, the only way to strengthen those muscles again is to use them. 00:16:22.639 --> 00:16:23.759 And it hurts. 00:16:24.720 --> 00:16:33.200 Luckily when we're talking, yeah, and but luckily when we're talking about gratitude, the only thing we need to do to use it is start practicing gratitude. 00:16:33.360 --> 00:16:44.879 And so, like you said, it's not even about trying to feel grateful, it's about noticing and being like, what can I be grateful for in this moment and writing those things down, and then the feeling will come later, right?

00:22:52.879 --> 00:23:01.200 Um and you're right, it it kind of like a Like a domino effect, how you know something happens, and then we might not even notice, right? 00:23:01.279 --> 00:23:05.599 We might, it might have been two days ago, and now we're like, why am I so irritated? 00:23:06.160 --> 00:23:24.079 And it's because it's been trailing along, and it's maybe you haven't even um, you know, those are the things kind of if you don't check in with yourself, like we've been talking about today, that can kind of go, you know, it's like a little boil, and it's like it's just growing and being gross, and you're like, Oh, why am I so irritated?

Your Time and 10 Minute Blocks Cheat Sheet. 00:24:10.240 --> 00:24:19.200 Um, it has 20 ideas, like I said, of how to block out 10 minutes for yourself, whether you're at work or with kids, is things like that, as well as 10 minutes of how to spend it. 00:24:19.279 --> 00:24:24.960 And people always assume self-care means you have to do it alone, you have to do it in isolation, it has to be quiet. 00:24:25.119 --> 00:24:27.759 But these are activities you can do with other people as well. 00:24:27.920 --> 00:24:31.680 It can be loud, it can be laughter, you can do these practices with your kids. 00:24:31.839 --> 00:24:35.519 Like I said, my journey started when my kids were really young, they're in their 20s now. 00:24:35.680 --> 00:24:43.680 And we talked about the impact that it had, not only them seeing me do these practices, but a lot of times they did do them with me. 00:24:43.839 --> 00:24:55.519 And now, you know, they're able to manage their stress a specific way, handle things, cope with things in a different way because of the things that I did more than I said, kids always do what you do and not what you say. 00:24:55.680 --> 00:25:03.759 And so to recognize we're not only doing this for ourselves, but we're modeling for the people around us how to treat us and how they need to treat themselves. 00:25:03.920 --> 00:25:12.160 And so with these practices, you can do them with your kids, you can do them with your friends, and to know these aren't just for you and you alone. 00:25:13.519 --> 00:25:14.480 That is amazing. 00:25:14.640 --> 00:25:15.200 And you know what?
