Today on the Burnout Recovery podcast I have the pleasure of hosting Dr Sarah McKay, a wonderful inspiring neuroscientist, mum and sailor based in Sydney. Sarah shares her expertise about approaches to understanding our behaviour and experiences, empathy and her most recent book, Baby Brain.
In this episode, you will be able to:

  • Delve into the science behind the human brain's role in causing burnout.
  • Debunk common misconceptions surrounding the lizard brain concept.
  • Apply the biopsychosocial model as an approach to manage burnout.
  • Examine the impact of pregnancy and motherhood on one's capacity for empathy and burnout resilience.
  • Prioritize sleep and mental wellness for yourself.

The resources mentioned in this episode are:

  • Check out the Neuroscience Coaching Network for courses with international guest speakers.
  • Learn about the biopsychosocial model to understand how the brain and nervous system interact with biology, psychology, and social factors.
  • Use the bottom-up, outside-in, and top-down model to troubleshoot issues, such as sleep problems, by identifying specific factors that may be contributing to the issue.
  • Experiment with different variables to find what works best for you and be kind to yourself in the process.
  • Explore Dr. Sarah McKay's latest book, Baby Brain, for more insights into the brain and how it is shaped in motherhood and why.
