Overcome Burnout and Get Your Family Back - Paul Hastings

Paul Hastings lost mobility in his arm from the stress of burnout at 29 years old. He shares the decision to overcome burnout and how to get your family back as a priority.

Overcome Burnout Before It Costs You an Arm or Leg

If you're like many Americans, you're juggling a lot. You've got work, family, and social obligations, and it can be tough to keep everything going. But sometimes, despite your best efforts, things can get overwhelming. You might start feeling irritable and resentful, and you may find yourself snapping at your loved ones. You might even start to feel like you're failing at everything.

If this sounds familiar, you might be experiencing burnout. Burnout is a state of physical, emotional, and mental exhaustion that can be caused by excessive and prolonged stress. It's important to recognize the signs of burnout so you can take steps to address them before it gets worse.

Paul Hastings was a hard-working family man running a business that supported his family. The work was rewarding, purpose-driven, and he felt that there was significance in his work. That began to change at 29 years old when he felt numbness in his arm that eventually led to paralysis of that arm.
