623: Active Recovery Is The Work

from My Business Playbook Hosted by Laura Higgins

You've probably heard the burnout advice before: slow down, do less, take a break. But what if that's only half the story? I hit a level of burnout that genuinely scared me. In this episode, I'm sharing the biggest lesson I learned during that season and why recovery wasn't about stopping everything - it was about learning how to protect my energy so I could keep showing up, keep performing, and keep doing work I love. What You'll Learn: Why I believe burnout is often the curse of overachievers The recovery advice that helped me - and the advice that made things worse What professional athletes taught me about sustainable performance How to identify the people, places, and experiences that genuinely refill your energy tank Why recovery needs to be planned before you need it The framework I use to recover from high-output seasons without crashing afterward Ready to build a business that grows without burning you out?
