• 11 - The Burnout Algorithm: Data Science, Stress, and Sustaining Success
    Oct 9 2025

    Are you running on empty in the pursuit of corporate excellence? This week, we tackle the silent career killer: motivational burnout in the modern workplace. I'm joined by my friend, Tiffany, a Data Scientist, who brings a unique, analytical perspective to a deeply human problem.

    We dive into the in-depth details of what actually causes this exhaustion, especially in high-pressure, expertise-driven fields like tech and data science. We discuss how to identify the subtle—and not-so-subtle—signs of chronic stress before it cripples your performance and passion. Tiffany shares her insights on recognizing the patterns of "always-on" culture and setting data-informed boundaries.

    Most importantly, we don't leave you hanging. We break down actionable, practical self-care strategies—not just bubble baths, but sustainable systems and mindset shifts—that you can implement immediately to protect your energy, manage stress, and ensure you remain the most effective, innovative performer in your area of expertise.

    If you've ever felt the drive slip away while the demands pile up, you are not alone. Come chat with us!
