Burnout - whether it’s in your career, school, or whatever is - you’re bound to feel it at some point. According to a Forbes article based on a nationwide study, 4.5 million Americans left their jobs in November 2021 alone .
Healthcare workers - like ourselves - during the COVID-19 pandemic have faced immense burnout that has led to 47% of them saying they plan to leave their current jobs within the next 2-3 years.
Repeated stressors, demanding work environments, unsupportive companies, and high expectation for ourselves all lead to burnout.
You are in control of your mental, physical, and emotional health in your career and in your life. Learn how to prevent, recognize, and treat burnout. You are not alone.

The Growing Pains Project
04/20/22 • 39 min
We are on FIRE! How do you handle money? How do you define how you live your life? What are you living towards or working towards? There’s working to live and living to work. How will you live your life?
What is the FIRE Movement? FIRE: Financial Independence, Retire Early - a concept birthed by Vicki Robin and Joe Dominguez in their book, Your Money or Your Life . The FIRE Movement has gained a lot of traction with millennials in recent years, and James uses this movement as a foundation for his philosophy of personal finance and life. This is the foundation for everything related to personal finance on The Growing Pains Project.
Learn what the FIRE movement is all about. Learn how to evaluate your current financial situation. Learn your relationship with money. Take control of your life, and don’t rely on that corporate job and big pockets. You want to live a financially independent life, travel when you want, spend time with family, and spend time on yourself? THIS is how we get there.

Ep. 002 | Growing Pains
The Growing Pains Project
02/28/22 • 34 min
Change. Growth. Growing Pains. Podcast hosts James Chuatoco and Yochabel Loyola dive into the meaning of growing pains , and the different types that we experience throughout life. Post-grad depression, family changes, the end of a relationship, the start of a new job.
Every change comes with growth. And life is full of constant transitions from one state of being to another - one circumstance to another. Change is what makes life – life . We define the different phases of transitions, referencing William Bridges’ book, Transitions: Making Sense of Life’s Changes , and how our reactions and perceptions to transitions help shape who we are as individuals.
Life is about constant transformation - the journey - not just the destination. How are you going to define who you are? How are you going to take control of your growing pains?
