Healing the Hustle: Overcoming Burnout with Self-compassion

About this talk:

“I was burnt out. I didn’t tell anyone… but there were signs”

If you’ve ever felt burnout creeping in, you know it can show up in quiet, subtle ways. Days blur together, and even the smallest tasks feel heavy. Maybe it’s the unexplained exhaustion, the rising self-doubt, or a mounting sense of detachment. You are not alone…

In this conversation, Dr. Ben Weinstein (Clinical Psychologist) and Sabrina Ooi (CEO, Calm Collective Asia) will share their personal journeys through burnout, candidly discussing the struggles, turning points, strategies and tools (like self-compassion) that helped them recover.

Listen in as we explore:
👉 How burnout develops and the early signs to watch for.
👉 How emotions such as shame and denial complicated their recovery and the steps they took to move past them.
👉 Real steps they used to rebuild after burnout and the powerful lessons they continue to apply in their daily lives.
