Burnout: admitting you're burnt toast

There was no way I could be "burned out." I work from home. I work in my pajamas for heaven's sake. How could I possibly earn that title, when there are people out there working harder than me? People that actually do things that matter? But really, I had no idea what burnout actually was. And how it was ruining my life.This is the episode where I admit I was experiencing life like a burnt piece of toast: panic attacks before client calls, reaching for a drink every night, completely losing my identity, all while telling myself I still wasn't doing enough. I talk about the moment it cracked open, the book that changed everything, and why learning to heal my nervous system became the greatest act of self-love I have ever experienced.Get The Trauma of Burnout: How to Manage Your Nervous System Before It Manages You by Dr. Claire Plumbly on Amazon.Get Do Nothing: How to Break Away from Overworking, Overdoing, and Underliving by Celeste Headlee on Amazon.Get 30 days free with the o-p-e-n app.Follow me on Instagram!
