This episode is all about burnout from a neuroscience angle and completing the stress cycle.

Amelia Nagoski, D.M.A. (it stands for Doctorate of Musical Arts), is Associate Professor and Coordinator of Music at Western New England University. Her job is to run around waving her arms and making funny noises, and generally doing whatever it takes to help singers get in touch with their internal experience.

In this podcast, we cover:

  • Signs that you have burnout
  • The ways that social media contributes to a warped perception of our lives
  • How burnout works from a neuroscience angle
  • Why emotional interactions do not need to be face to face
  • How you can complete the stress cycle
