Finding My Way - Dealing With Burnout

Lisa Hammett talks about how she dealt with burnout and found a way out. "My mother, was bipolar, diagnosed late in life. It was chronic anxiety related. There were periods in my life growing up where she wouldn't talk to me for like a week. If I did something to really upset her, she would just completely shut me out. I developed people pleasing tendencies and hyper achieving tendencies. I was always pushing myself really hard to get good grades and doing everything to please her." For my mom I would tell myself she's doing the best she can and give her some grace". "My experience, reaching burnout has really led me to where I can serve my clients to the best of my ability now".
