#Burnout can happen to anyone in a chronically stressful role - and sometimes leads to a difficult life decision, like a decision to quit or make a career change. It can be quite courageous to do what Jürgen Klopp is doing! I touch on this topic in my new book, ACT for Burnout.

@LMFTherapistVA That has happened to me before after a long day! And then I feel like I'm just waiting for a reasonable time that I can go to bed... Hope you have a better day tomorrow!

It’s been a long day with some tough moments (I’m ok) - so was just thinking it must be time to start getting ready for bed. And then looked at the clock and it was 6:45 so…
