Ep#176 The Unreconstructed Type A Burning Out
Manage episode 482893323 series 3000762
You know that guy who’s brilliant—but hard to work with? The one who gets results but leaves a trail of tension behind him?
Maybe you’ve worked with him.
Maybe you’ve been him.
Let's explore:
- What makes driven professionals spiral into burnout
- The real origins of the “Type A” personality label (spoiler: cardiologists, not psychologists)
- Why your brilliance might be getting in your way
- And most importantly: what the “after” version of a high-performing Type A looks and feels like
Think Sherlock Holmes. Or for my American friends, think House M.D.
Hyper-competent. Obsessed. Burned out.
There’s a better way to be excellent—without losing your edge.
