How to Reclaim Your Energy, Sanity, and Self-Compassion|305

Ever feel like you're crushing life… until life crushes you right back?

You're meal-prepping, showing up for workouts, answering emails faster than ChatGPT, helping your kids survive college admissions, and wondering why you are running on fumes.

You’re not lazy. You’re not broken. You’re just burned the hell out.

In this episode, I’m joined by Coach Ellen Schinke, burnout expert, high-achiever whisperer, and fellow recovering perfectionist, to break down what burnout really is (hint: it’s not just being tired) and how to spot it before you're face down on the floor wondering if wine counts as a self-care strategy.

We get into:
The 4 types of burnout (yes, there’s more than one!)
Why your brain won’t shut up at night (hello, overthinking)
The sneaky ways you’re numbing with "healthy" habits
How to ditch the pressure for balance and aim for sustainable badassery
What self-compassion actually looks like (spoiler: it’s not bubble baths and mantras)

Whether you're running on caffeine and cortisol or just feeling off lately, this conversation will give you the words, awareness, and tools to pull yourself out of burnout and back into your body.

No guilt. No shame. Just real talk, real tools, and a reminder that doing less doesn’t make you less.
