TW: This episode contains discussion of content that may be distressing to some viewers, including anxiety and depression.

And we are back for a second season of Embracing the Mind!

We kick off the new season with this episode devoted to something so many of us experience with the rigours of work-life balance: burnout.

Our first guest is Renee Buckingham, who tells us about the workload she packs into her day as a vegan blogger, commercial radio producer and contractor.

Clinical psychologist Dr Joyce Chong then explains some of the factors that contribute to feelings of overwhelm, and how to address these.

If this episode has caused you distress, please reach out to a loved one or call Lifeline on 13 11 14.

Embrace is supported by its principal partner, Rio Tinto.
