You show up. You give your best. And still, you feel depleted. Not because you are failing, but because something larger has been drawing from you for a long time.That is where this conversation begins.In Episode 23 of our Roadmap to Resilience series, we speak with Mazarine Treyz. Her work explores how systems are designed to extract from those who care most, and what it takes to return to yourself after that depletion.We talk about the quiet shame many high achievers carry. The belief that if you are exhausted, you must not be doing enough. Mazarine reframes this clearly. The burnout is not personal. It is structural.The conversation expands beyond the nonprofit sector into a shared experience. You can be successful, high-performing, and still feel like something is unsustainable. Like the cost of caring has become too high.We also explore anger, not as something to suppress, but as information. A signal pointing to unmet needs and deeper truths.And rest, not as a reward, but as a starting point. A way back to clarity and choice.What stands out most is how Mazarine names the harm in these systems without collapsing into despair. She brings it back to the body, to the self, and to the possibility that your needs matter.If you have ever poured yourself into meaningful work and felt unexpectedly depleted, this episode will resonate.You can find her book and workbook at healingfromnonprofits.com.If this conversation is landing for you, or you are navigating burnout or a turning point, reach out to us at [email protected].
