Questions About ADHD and Burnout to Ask ...

David A Greenwood
About this episode

In this episode we are discussing adult ADHD and burnout again because it is becoming more apparent that many busy professionals are going through some type of burnout.

In this episode, Dave gives you 10 questions to ask yourself if you're approaching burnout, or you feel you are in full blown burnout mode.

If you're experiencing stress in the workplace or even at home, and you think you may be heading towards burnout, these are some great questions to ask yourself.

One of the biggest and most important things anybody can do when it comes to burnout is gain more self-awareness.

This is part one of a two-part series about questions to ask yourself about ADHD and burnout.
