Stressed and Overwhelmed
Mike, a 45-year-old firefighter, was facing one of the toughest challenges of his life. Alongside his demanding and often unpredictable job, he had taken on the task of going back to school to earn his MBA. Mike's days were spent responding to emergencies, training, and working long shifts, leaving him with little time or energy to tackle his coursework. The stress was mounting, and he found it increasingly difficult to balance his career, studies, and personal life. Nights were spent trying to catch up on assignments after grueling days at the firehouse, leading to burnout and frustration.
