It’s Not a Calendar Problem, It’s a You Problem - Dr. Jaime G. Raygoza

Season #2

Is burnout just a scheduling issue — or is it the story you’re telling yourself?

In this powerful episode of The Ownership Game, Gary Montalvo sits down with Dr. Jaime G. Raygoza, organizational psychologist, coach, and burnout expert, to dismantle the myth that overwork is just about poor time management. Dr. Jaime shares his raw, near-fatal story of hustle culture gone too far — and the hard-earned wisdom he now uses to help entrepreneurs, leaders, and high-achievers break the cycle of burnout.

If you’ve ever felt like the only way to succeed is to do more, push harder, or ignore what your body is screaming at you — this conversation is your permission slip to choose a wiser path.

 

In this episode, we discuss:

  • Why your hustle might be rooted in trauma or an old identity story
  • The hidden physical symptoms your body uses to warn you about burnout
  • How stress kills creativity and long-term business growth
  • Simple, science-backed daily rituals to reset your nervous system (hello, laughter yoga!)
  • How to plan for success as an entrepreneur in the infinite game
