Hey everyone, you're listening to TED Talks Daily, where we bring you new ideas to spark your curiosity every day. I'm your host, Elise Hugh. Welcome back to our first podcast playlist of 26. Today, we have dropped 10 talks from our archive onto the feed all at once to motivate you,

new project or idea, or if things are feeling good for you right now, just to offer a different

perspective. Whatever type of motivation you might need, we have a TED talk for that.

Tarveen Forrester, who oversees workplace culture at Kickstarter,

break.

Studies show that at least one in informed employees globally have experienced burnout.
