In this episode of The Rainmaking Podcast, host Scott Love speaks with Dr. Jack Singer—psychologist, author, and performance coach—about how professionals can master the habits that protect against burnout and emotional fatigue. Dr. Singer explains that burnout often stems from unrecognized thought patterns tied to two common personality traits: Type A overachievers and people-pleasers. He shares how awareness of these tendencies, combined with tools like his Thinking Pattern Worksheet, can help professionals shift from toxic self-talk to healthy, resilient mindsets.
Dr. Singer emphasizes that burnout isn’t caused by external events, but by how we interpret those events through internal dialogue. He outlines practical methods for identifying distorted thinking, managing expectations, and responding to emotional cues like cynicism or chronic fatigue. Whether it's learning to say no, challenging perfectionism, or recognizing when it’s time to seek help, this episode offers a science-backed, compassionate roadmap for maintaining high performance without sacrificing well-being.
