About this listen

Kendall Berg reveals the truth about how to emotionally detach from work—without losing your ambition. Most professionals don’t burn out from overworking; they burn out from over-caring. In this episode of Secrets of the Career Game, Kendall breaks down why emotional detachment is the real power skill behind sustainable success.

You’ll learn how to stop tying your self-worth to work performance, focus your energy where it actually drives results, and let go of the constant need to fix everyone else’s problems. Kendall also shares her personal “Future Self Cheat Sheet,” a simple framework to help you build identity, structure, and joy outside of work—so your career doesn’t consume your entire sense of self.

In this episode, we discuss:

  • How to emotionally detach from work without feeling lazy or disengaged

  • What daily habits prevent burnout and build long-term success

  • Why “swooping and saving” your team only fuels exhaustion

  • How to create your own “Future Self Cheat Sheet”

  • What emotional detachment really looks like for high performers
