Three weeks ago, Noam Segal and I shared data showing that 84% of tech workers feel burned out. That left one big question: Who are the 16% who aren’t?
This episode is their playbook. We analyzed 175 follow-up surveys and spoke with 15 “burnout conquerors” to understand how they’ve cracked the code.
In this episode, you’ll learn
The five-part “ARMOR” framework for burnout protection
The habits, systems, and beliefs that keep burnout at bay
How to set boundaries that actually hold
How to prioritize mental and physical wellbeing, without guilt
Early warning signals that most people miss
How to take rhythmic, reflective, and restorative breaks
How to choose roles based on energy, not ego
Why relationships, not perks are your best defense
