About this listen

What if stepping away from your life is actually the thing that helps you come back stronger?In this episode of the Health, Tech & Wellness Podcast, John Adams and Crystal Nevedale talk about burnout, mental resets, and why intentional breaks, from travel to simple daily pauses, are essential for long-term health and balance.Crystal shares how traveling, especially returning from Puerto Rico, helps her slow down, reflect, and reconnect with what actually matters. From a physically demanding survival hike to a powerful encounter with an 87-year-old man still building his life’s work, the trip becomes more than a vacation, it becomes a grounding experience.John opens up about his own version of grounding, including driving, solitude, and a raw moment of burnout so intense he once drove home without remembering the drive at all. Together, they explore how nonstop grinding leads to autopilot living and why stepping away, even briefly, can prevent mental, emotional, and physical collapse.This episode is a reminder that rest isn’t weakness. It’s strategy. Whether it’s a trip, a walk in nature, taking your lunch break, or just five quiet minutes to breathe, stepping away might be the most productive thing you do.In This Episode, We Cover: • Why travel can be grounding instead of exhausting • The difference between escaping life and resetting your mind • How burnout sneaks in when you never allow yourself to pause • Why small daily breaks matter just as much as big vacations • Nature as one of the most powerful tools for mental clarity • Legacy, purpose, and asking yourself “Am I really living?” • A simple gratitude exercise that helps reset your mindsetKey Takeaway:You don’t need to disappear for a week to reset. You need to give yourself permission to step away without guilt, so you can come back clearer, calmer, and stronger.💬 Join the conversationWhat helps you feel grounded when life starts to feel overwhelming?
