Have you ever experienced burnout? If yes, you’ll appreciate this episode. If no, you’ll appreciate this episode. You may be in the midst of it & be too burned out to know, & if you’re not, it may help you avoid it.

Listen in for a relatable discussion with my friend, the inspirational Eric Recker, dentist, success coach, keynote speaker, workshop facilitator on performance & burnout, two-time author, & recovering triathlete. Oh, & he’s a husband & dad, too.

Eric’s life took an unexpected turn when he was faced with a near-death experience due to a rare medical condition, a sobering moment that forced him to confront his priorities & reassess his approach to life. Through it, he gleaned the invaluable lesson of embracing the present moment & cherishing meaningful connections over fleeting achievements.

Now, he shares his experiences & insights & strives to support individuals & teams in achieving their goals while maintaining a healthy work-life balance.

In this episode, Eric & I discuss:

• Going through burnout rather than around it
• His identity as a dentist & others’ perspectives on being anything other than that
• Sleeping challenges, chest pains, heart palpitations, & panic attacks
• Doing more & working harder
• The build-up of burnout
• Third grade punks, kickball, & life-long perfectionism
• The ongoing challenge of doing less
• The selflessness of taking care of ourselves
• The finite inflow & outflow of dams & humans
• Expecting more of ourselves than others
• The importance of gauging our tank & ensuring we have something in it
• Daily self-awareness & line dancing
