S19E4: Beating Burnout with Kelley Bonner

Cultivating H.E.R. Space: Uplifting Conversations for the Black Woman

Hey lady, it’s Friday! You made it. We have a question for you though…are you coasting into the weekend or are you running headfirst to your bed? This week, Terri and Dr. Dom welcome Kelley Bonner, host of the Black Girl Burnout podcast, to discuss a topic we’re sure will resonate with many of you. Kelley drops in and defines burnout and offers tangible tools for you to incorporate into your day to reduce and minimize any burnout you may be experiencing. Good news! This isn’t the typical reduce your stressors spiel you’ve heard. This convo has tips on how you can proactively approach your boss with professional candor, and how the bosses in the room can make space for more empathy while still maintaining the focus on the company’s objectives. If you see the wall in your direct view and you’re afraid you’re about to crash into it, fret not! A few tweaks to your day can have you breathing in joy and self-fulfillment, and you won’t need a month in Bali to do it. We’d love to hear from you! Head to Instagram and let us know your favorite way to avoid burnout!

Quote of the Day:
“But what happens when you work hard at something unfulfilling? It drains your spirit. It robs you of your life force. You end up depleted, depressed, and angry.”
– Oprah Winfrey
