About Outsmart Burnout
You're smart, driven, and accomplished — but you're exhausted. Not the kind of tired that a good night's sleep fixes. The kind that makes you wonder how much longer you can keep going at this pace, and whether the life you've built is actually the life you want. Welcome to Outsmart Burnout. I'm your host, Dr. Zarya Rubin — a Harvard-educated physician, TEDx speaker, burnout expert, and recovering overachiever — this show is for high-achieving women who are done white-knuckling their way through life and ready to reclaim their passion, purpose, and joy. As a physician who burned out in medicine and found my way back to personal and professional success, I don't just study burnout - I've lived it. Each week, I invite expert guests to dive into the real conversations high-achieving women need most: the science of burnout and nervous system regulation, the identity shifts that midlife brings, the systems and patterns keeping you stuck, and the practical strategies to help you feel like yourself again. Remember, burnout is not your destiny, it's your wake-up call.

How to Be Enough: Worthiness, Achievement Addiction, and Burnout - with Dr. Mandy Lehto
Published 14 Oct 2026 · Transcript excerpt
[…] So I realized at some stage that I went through the ranks of promotion very, very quickly. I was really pedal to the metal, firstborn daughter, Gen X, Aries, Enneagram 3. It was just like, get her done and move through the ranks. I was a single mom at that time. I just realized when this was not what I wanted to be doing. There's also a shadow side that you see in certain fast paced industries. And I was getting more and more exposure to that. And it wasn't having a good effect on my mental and physical health. And there also comes a time in people's careers that happen, I think several times where doing more of what you've always done doesn't give you the result that has made you successful in the past.
