The Psychology of Workaholism, Burnout & Exhaustion

In this talk, Dr. Lalitaa Suglani sheds light on the hidden yet damaging effects of overworking in today’s fast-paced, high-pressure world. What may seem like dedication or ambition often masks underlying issues like anxiety, perfectionism, and a fear of failure.

Dr Suglani explores how unchecked work habits can lead to burnout and exhaustion, affecting both physical and mental health. Attendees will learn to spot the early signs of burnout, understand the psychological drivers behind workaholism, and apply practical strategies to break free from the cycle. The goal is to help professionals regain control, restore work-life balance, and cultivate lasting well-being in both their professional and personal lives.
