Beat Mental Exhaustion, Emotional Bankruptcy, & Brain Fog
Feeling like you can’t take it anymore? Completely exhausted? Like no matter how much you do, you’re never getting anywhere? Life feeling dead, and like you don’t even have one more drop of energy to give? You aren’t alone. Not even close. At minimum 1 in 3 people are holistically and wholly exhausted, suffering what we now call burnout. Especially in the corporate spaces, I am seeing a level of fatigue and overwhelm that really concerns me.
So if I had a wish for 2024, it would be to make 1 million Dr Mark Rowe’s. And that’s why I have him on the show today, for the people I know out there who are burnt out and need hope, because your burnout can become your “breakthrough”!
Dr Mark Rowe is an Irish doctor, author and vitality expert. He has been a practising family physician for nearly 30 years, where he practices health and human potential, lifestyle medicine & longevity and happiness & burnout prevention. He is the founder of the Waterford Health Park, which has become both the base for his medical practice as well as the ‘Lifestyle Medicine Be Well Clinic’.
Dr. Rowe is also the author of two books – ‘A Prescription for Happiness: The Ten Commitments to a Happier, Healthier Life’ and ‘The Men’s Health Book’.
In this episode Steve and Dr Mark Rowe discuss:
