Carole Jean Whittington, Autistic Burnout Researcher at Whittington Well-Being
About this episode

In Episode 163 of Beyond Chronic Burnout, we're closing out our three-part August series on "Tools & Resources to Use When You're in Burnout to Manage Your Energy" with a groundbreaking conversation.


Our guest today is Tomer Aharoni, the co-founder and CEO of Nagish, an innovative app that’s revolutionizing communication for individuals with hearing challenges by providing real-time captions for phone calls and in-person conversations—all while maintaining user privacy.


Join host Carole Jean Whittington as she delves into Tomer’s journey from being a software engineer at Bloomberg and researcher at Columbia University to creating a tool that’s not only making communication more accessible but also helping neurodivergent and disabled individuals manage one of the most common energy drains: auditory processing delays and disorders.


In this episode, Tomer shares how Nagish can be a game-changer for those who experience burnout, especially when the simple act of making a phone call feels like an overwhelming task.


Whether you're someone who struggles with auditory processing or just hates making phone calls, this conversation is packed with insights on how to reclaim your energy and break through communication barriers.


Tune in to learn more about the connection between accessible communication and burnout management, and discover how tools like Nagish can support your journey to a more balanced and energized life.
