The Millennial Reset
by Peter Guse
Healing Over Hustle: Why Rest Feels Impossible
About this podcast
If you’re a burnt-out millennial dealing with stress, career confusion, and that quiet question, “Is this really it?”, welcome. This is The Millennial Reset, a personal development and growth podcast about burnout management, breaking generational cycles, purpose, identity, and redefining success in your millennial messy middle.
I’m Peter Guse: former educator turned corporate burnout survivor and fellow millennial that’s calling B.S. on the playbook we were handed, and rebuilding a life that actually feels like mine. This show is your soft landing when growth starts to feel like another to-do list and you’re craving self-compassion over self-optimization.
Expect a blend of brain science, cultural commentary, and 90s nostalgia that holds up a mirror to the collective millennial experience, with practical tools for: regulating stress, setting boundaries, healing conditioning, navigating hustle culture, and finding meaning again without blowing up your whole life.
This isn’t about becoming someone new. It’s about remembering who you were before the world told you who to be, and creating a gentler path forward — one that feels more human, sustainable, and actually yours.
Whether you’re questioning your career, your conditioning, or definition of success— you’re not behind. You’re just choosing an entirely different roadmap. And you don’t have to trudge this path alone.
Welcome to your companionship for your chrysalis era.
