What if the way you're trying to "rest" is actually making your burnout worse?

In this episode, we follow Sarah, a resident doctor who spent hours every night binge-watching Netflix, thinking she was taking care of herself - only to wake up more exhausted than ever.

We explore the fascinating science behind why passive consumption isn't real rest, how your brain's natural cleaning system only works during quality sleep, and the difference between "junk rest" and restorative activities that actually recharge your batteries.

You'll discover practical strategies to transform your evening routine and learn why fixing your rest foundation strengthens all four pillars of burnout recovery. Plus, get actionable tips for creating a "digital sunset" and choosing activities that truly restore your energy instead of depleting it further.
