73: How I am Climbing Out of Burnout

Send us Fan MailIn this episode, I share a more personal reflection about how I began to recognize the early signs of burnout in my own life - and the small but meaningful shifts I'm making to climb out of it. As caregivers and educators, we're often skilled at noticing stress in others while minimizing it in ourselves. This episode explores what burnout can look like before it reaches a breaking point, how our values and roles can quietly push us past our limits, and why recovery isn't always about dramatic change. I talk candidly about what helped me pause, reassess, and begin to rebuild in a way that feels sustainable and compassionate - not perfect. If you're feeling stretched thin, questioning your capacity, or wondering whether what you're experiencing "counts" as burnout, this conversation is an invitation to slow down and reflect, rather than push through.If you have any questions or topics you want me to cover, please email me at [email protected], direct message me on Instragram @SchoolPsychPodcast, or click "Send Us a Text" in this episode description.If you like the School Psych Podcast or find it helpful, please share it with a friend  or follow the podcast, so others are more likely to find it.
