Ain't No Rest for the Empathetic - The Burnout Trap

In this episode, we talk about burnout, why it happens, and why some of the people most likely to experience it are the ones who genuinely care about others. We discuss people-pleasing, compassion fatigue, setting boundaries, and the pressure to always be available. We also talk about why so many of us tie our self-worth to being helpful, productive, or needed—and what happens when that mindset catches up with us. If you've ever felt guilty for resting, struggled to say no, or found yourself running on empty while trying to take care of everyone else, this episode is for you.
