"Prioritizing your well-being is the winning strategy". Powerful words spoken.

3 years later, and much more at peace with myself, but burnouts are brutal. Everybody who’s going through this, please stay strong and stay safe. This too passes, and we’ll be better people at the end of it.

After a burnout, I found that I can't carry on; so I dropped my graduation there inspite of being a topper of my city. And decided to take a fresh start after a gap of one year. It helped me in understanding my area of interest and increase my productivity.

Burnout main reasons are: 1. Toxic Boss 2. Overload of work 3. Pay parity 4. Unproductive meetings 5. Paying less internal increments and offering higher pay for replaced recruits 6. Traffic and commute issues to cover field jobs

Palki, the fact that you stand by the people at the grassroots means a lot. Mark of a true leader. After Arnab if anyone has emerged powerful, its you Palki.

Very recently Narayan Murthy Sir in an interview made a point of working 70 hrs a week, CEO of OLA Bhavish Agrawal Sir supported this idea. Mam you should interview Murthy Sir and Agrawal sir, and ask them about these issues and their solutions to these issues that employees face in there daily lives.

Bravo. Here n the US its become even tougher since the cost to maintain family including child care is unmanageable along with long hours and daily commute. The expectations have become unrealistic and caused so much damage while a high percentage of employees do not wish to complain for fear of retaliation and with higher chances of similar employment in other states, it makes those who can't relocate or don't wish to suffer more. Thanks for bringing up this topic.

I am so happy that someone finally found it important to talk about it! Addressing these kinds of things on a public platform itself made me feel good you know! Thank you Palki ji!

Exactly, I was promoted to operations manager in a huge multinational company in my mid-20s and I was working nights and also on-call 24x7. I was burned out due to lack of sleep. I thought that was the end of my career. But I found another job that pays better, no on-call and regular working hours. And my old company replaced my role with 4 people after I left.

this is true Journalism, thanks for making such a video.

Thank you for this news. I’m experiencing burn out and took a medical leave from Investment Banking. I worked over 2 decades in this industry. Now the company I was employed over a decade laid me off. It shows that my dedication and sacrifice meant nothing more than a headcount. We are easily replaceable. Meanwhile, I was a “valuable asset” when I was able to perform at my highest and longest…

I have always refused to push my self to the limit and it works for me

Was burnt out just before and during the pandemic.... I designed so many funeral programs and memorial keepsakes at the funeral home I worked at.... it's crazy. There weren't enough hrs in the day!!!

GREAT!! Thank you for this report, Palki. It's hard to say NO but even harder for people to accept it. But I can say that I've finally learned to impose my boundaries and I'm proud of that. 😊
