What is burnout according to neuroscientist Dr Helen Boschi

In a recent episode of In Confidence with Lisa Sun, Dr Helena Boschi explores what burnout really looks like through the lens of neuroscience.

Rather than treating burnout as a sudden event, Helena explains it as the cumulative effect of sustained stress on the brain and body. She discusses why forgetfulness, irritability and the feeling of being constantly busy without making progress are often early warning signs, not personal failings.
