In episode 15, I sit down with my childhood friends Christian Chen & Sam Lin. We talk briefly about Christian's new YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzybKJG_A1gwcE3sYdFWHPg), then transition to the topic of how our mindset greatly influences how we feel about our own lives, regardless of what is actually going on. We then get into the centerpiece of the conversation - each of us shares our own personal stories of burning out. The term, for those who don't know, means feeling mentally exhausted, lack of motivation & hope for positive change (more on this in the intro). Christian & Sam's experiences included depression (not clinical) so we talk about that too. After sharing these individual stories we talk about takeaways and lessons we've gotten from our experience. This is a topic that applies to everyone, and I applaud these two gentlemen for being so open and honest. I think this is a very valuable discussion to listen to. You can find both Christian & Sam on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/chrischen.chen/ and https://www.instagram.com/mochi3sam/.
