Summer burnout or FOMO? As esthetic professionals, many of us were initially excited and encouraged about returning to work post-pandemic. We adjusted many aspects of our businesses\\u2014masks, new cleaning protocols, longer appointment times, a more forgiving cancellation policy, etc.

But now, just as the rest of the country is setting new travel records going everywhere (or anywhere) here we are, stuck in our treatment rooms every weekend! \\xa0

Are we burnt out on many levels, or are we suffering from fear of missing out? If it\\u2019s the former for you, you are not alone! A 2020 study found that 76 percent of US workers admit to feeling burnout, with 3 percent citing COVID-19 stressors as a contributor.

In this episode, we discuss what burnout looks like in our industry and share some tools to keep your passion fires burning by protecting from a few triggers.
