Breaking Free from Burnout

from The F.L.O.W. (Fearlessly Leading Our Way) Podcast · host Angela V. Harris

Breaking Free from Burnout   This week on The F.L.O.W. Podcast, I sit down with licensed therapist, Army veteran, and founder of Your Space to Heal, Elizabeth McCoy. Together, we unpack what it means for Black women to finally choose themselves.   Elizabeth gets real about the generational expectations many of us carry — from being the family fixer to always showing up as the “strong one.” She challenges the toxic hustle culture that keeps us in survival mode and offers a radical alternative: rest, joy, and wholeness as non-negotiables. You’ll hear: Why so many high-achieving Black women are stuck in burnout cycles The impact of unhealed generational trauma on our health and identity How to walk away from what no longer serves you — without guilt What it looks like to shift from survival to thriving The message Elizabeth gives every woman afraid to rest Whether you’re in therapy, considering it, or simply tired of carrying it all — this episode is your permission slip to slow down, let go, and start living.   The choice to break the cycle is yours.   Listen now and share with a sister who needs this message.   Connect with Elizabeth: LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/elizabethmccoyysh Instagram: @theelizabethmccoy Website: elizabethmccoy.info Connect with Angela: Website: www.angelavharris.com Instagram: @coachangelavharris   @theflowpodcastwithangela  LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/angelavharris   Subscribe & Listen: New episodes of the F.L.O.W.
