Episode 119. Best of Dental Life Podcast - Vol 2. Are You At Risk of Burnout
Best Of the Podcast: Are You at Risk for Burnout?
In this powerhouse replay from the Best Of series, Beth cuts through the noise and gets real about burnout—what it is, what it’s not, and why most of us are treating the wrong thing.
Burnout isn’t about your schedule, your workload, or how much chaos you’re juggling. It’s not about your team, your boss, your patients, or the 97 things still sitting on your to-do list.
It’s about the emotional energy driving your actions.
And when that fuel is scarcity, stress, fear, or frustration—you’re not just heading toward burnout, you’re already living in it.
Beth unpacks the three root causes that put you at the highest risk:
➡️ Stressful thinking
➡️ Scarcity mindset
➡️ Poor planning
She shares how she used to live in that cycle—dreading work, trying to outwork overwhelm, and hoping something outside of her would fix it all. (Spoiler alert: it didn’t.) But once she took back control of her mind, everything changed.
You’ll walk away from this episode with:
- A new lens for recognizing burnout before it hits hard
- A powerful reminder that your emotions are in your control
- A first step toward creating a future that energizes you instead of depleting you
If you're tired of just surviving your days, this episode is your starting line. Let's change the way you think, so you can change the way you show up—for your career, your life, and yourself.
