Failure, We Don't Know Her (but we actually do)

So many of us are quietly running on empty. In this episode, Karli and Renee open up about burnout in both business and life—the signs we’ve ignored, the personal stories that shaped our fears, and the ways we’ve learned to move forward without guilt.From crying on the pantry floor while juggling 18 clients to petty fights that were really just exhaustion in disguise, we dig into how burnout shows up in unexpected ways. But we don’t just stop at the professional side. Karli shares how one overheard comment from a school administrator in high school—“she’ll never get anywhere because of who her mom was”—left her terrified of quitting anything for years, equating it with failure. And Renee opens up about selling a business she once saw as a failure, until she reframed it as one of her greatest stepping stones.Inside, you’ll find:✨ The myths and lies that fuel burnout (“I have to do it all,” “I’m not enough,” “everyone else has it together”).✨ A simple framework (the BURN Test) to check where you are on the spectrum.✨ Boundaries, reframes, and practices that have actually helped us recover.✨ The truth about how our worth and success aren’t defined by never quitting.This conversation is real, raw, and a little messy—but that’s exactly the point. Burnout isn’t weakness, and failure isn’t the end. They’re both part of building a life and business that’s truly sustainable.👉 Share this episode with a friend who needs the reminder, and tag us with your “I knew I was burned out when…”stories using #Burnout #bounderies
