Finding Balance: Dr. Marcia Sirota on the Right to Disconnect and Avoiding Burnout

So we need to disconnect from our jobs, and even if the legislation doesn't affect you... there's a lot of people who are not going to benefit from this new legislation. And are there places that you can disconnect?
Feeling overwhelmed by work? Dr. Marcia Sirota tackles the crucial topic of disconnecting from the workplace in this episode of 'Ruthless Compassion'. With Ontario's recent 'Right to Disconnect' law, some employers now have guidelines for employees to switch off after hours. This is a significant step in combating burnout, a widespread issue affecting many professions, from teachers to healthcare workers. Dr.
Sirota, a board-certified psychiatrist, sheds light on the signs and symptoms of burnout and how the inability to disconnect can spiral into workaholism. She offers practical advice on creating a balanced life, including taking breaks and finding joy outside of work. Whether you're feeling the strain or want to prevent burnout before it starts, this episode provides valuable insights and actionable tips to help you reclaim your time and mental well-being.
