Rekindling Your Passion at Work When You’re Burnt Out

Human beings are at their best when they have an independent sense of purpose and are able to find that purpose in their work. Unfortunately, burnout is increasingly common in the office, leading to less engaged employees and a loss passion for what they do.

Spotting the signs of burnout can be hard, and overcoming it is even harder. On today’s episode of Find Your Niche: A Career Podcast, host Lori Cole looks at how to overcome burnout at work and find your passion again. The three things that Cole recommends for rekindling your enthusiasm at work are:

• Challenge Yourself: Volunteering, taking a class, or leaning into a hobby can spark creativity and create a sense of passion that can bleed into your work.
• Find Your Tribe: Joining professional organizations, attending networking events, or reaching out to colleagues you look up to are a few ways to rediscover your enthusiasm at work.
• Embrace Failure: When you try new things and take calculated risks, you’ll discover unique strengths and passions, leading to greater fulfillment in your career.

In this episode, Cole also explores the career path of event marketing with Live Nation Entertainment Venue Marketing Manager Laura Cross. The two discuss what drew Cross into marketing and how she landed her role with Live Nation.
