Worry can feel like a necessary part of success—but it’s more often a habit that drains your energy, confidence, and focus. In this episode, we explore two ways to cut worry down to size quickly.First, we’ll look at a science-based 4-step protocol from Dr. Steve Bierman’s book The End of Worry, which helps dissolve worry as a reflex. Then, we’ll compare it to a coaching-based approach I use with clients in burnout—rooted in cognitive behavioural techniques and emotional leadership.You’ll hear a real-world example of both methods in action, and learn how each approach helps disarm negative thinking and restore clarity—without toxic positivity or endless self-talk.In this episode:Why worry feels useful—but rarely isThe link between worry and imposter syndromeDr. Steve Bierman’s 4-step protocol for ending the worry habitA burnout coaching approach based on real-time reframeWhen to use each method—and how to make either one work for youMentioned in this episode:The End of Worry by Dr. Steve Biermanhttps://www.burnouttoleadership.com/1849743/episodes/11274011-ep-46-how-to-fix-problemsSend us a text----------------------------------- Burnout Resources:Get 1-on-1 burnout recovery coaching at https:/mini.dexrandall.comFor even more TIPS see FACEBOOK: @coachdexrandallINSTAGRAM: @coachdexrandallLINKEDIN: @coachdexrandallX: @coachdexrandallSee https://linktr.ee/coachdexrandall for all links

Ep#187 The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F---
In this episode, I unpack some of the core ideas from The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F**k by Mark Manson — and how they relate (or don’t) to burnout recovery. We’ll explore why the pursuit of positivity can backfire, what “choosing your struggles” actually means, and how to take radical responsibility without shame or blame.You’ll hear my take on:Why you shouldn’t try to care about everythingThe role of values, pain, and freedom in how you spend your energyWhere “extreme ownership” helps burnout — and where it harmsWhy accepting the bad is key to getting your power backThis isn’t about blaming yourself. It’s about choosing what really matters — so you can stop the self-abandonment cycle and start living with purpose again.📍 Mentioned:Extreme Ownership by Jocko Willink & Leif BabinThe Last Word on Power by Tracy GossSend us a text----------------------------------- Burnout Resources:Get 1-on-1 burnout recovery coaching at https:/mini.dexrandall.comFor even more TIPS see FACEBOOK: @coachdexrandallINSTAGRAM: @coachdexrandallLINKEDIN: @coachdexrandallX: @coachdexrandallSee https://linktr.ee/coachdexrandall for all links
