Summary

Ever suffer from burnout? We certainly have, and we’re talking all about it on this “Best of” episode of Bewildered! Burnout is something our culture doesn’t allow because it expects us to be productive non-stop. However, our wild natures require “wintering” periods where we rest and reset. If you need to recover from burnout (or you want to preempt it), tune in for the full episode to hear our suggestions for getting ahead of burnout and resetting your body, mind, heart, and spirit.

0:00.0	Welcome to Bewildered. I'm Martha Beck, here with Rowan Mangan. At this crazy moment in history,
0:09.2	a lot of people are feeling bewildered, but that actually may be a sign we're on track. Human culture
0:15.3	teaches us to come to consensus, but nature, our own true nature, helps us come to our census. Rowan and I believe that the
0:23.8	best way to figure it all out is by going through the wilderness into the wildermen. That's why we're here.
0:31.2	So as some of you listeners may know, a few months ago, Rowan and I started something called
0:36.0	the Wilder Community, which is kind of an online village where people like us who want to find our true nature, even if it peels us away from culture, can get together, commun, make friends and do things.
0:51.1	We have all kinds of regular events in there that are just so fun. We have a weekly

1:06.0	leads that are crazy powerful. And there are just all kinds of monthly themes and personal development stuff that we
1:15.1	work through together and just a hive of activity and connection among really wonderful
1:22.5	people.
1:23.8	Yeah.
1:24.0	So if you're feeling drawn to belong to a community in these troubled times, give Wilder a try.
1:30.4	It's at wildercommunity.com, all one word, and we hope we'll see you there.
1:37.8	Hi, I'm Martha Beck.
1:39.2	And I'm Rowan Mangon, and this is another episode of Bewilded, the podcast for people who are trying to figure it out.
1:45.5	We're trying to figure it out, aren't we?
1:47.0	We are.
1:47.6	We try so hard.
1:49.1	Yeah.
1:49.5	How are you doing today at figuring it out?
