The AWE Experience

We talk about burnout - what it looks like, how it can happen and what we can do to prevent it. It starts from listening to our body and paying attention to the warning signs. We hear about the personal journey of the incredible Dr. Zarya Rubin a Harvard-educated functional physician, TEDx speaker, and burnout expert. She helps high-achieving women in midlife break free from burnout to reclaim their passion, purpose and joy. Combining expertise in neurology, functional medicine, mindfulness and nervous system healing, she creates a multidisciplinary approach to breaking the burnout cycle. She is also the host of the podcast, “Outsmart Burnout.

The AWE Experience today is all about sleep hygiene! What is it, what are some tips and tricks, why is it important, and what happens when we don’t get enough? We are joined by the inimitable Jenelle Isaacson Etzel, founder and CEO of Living Room Realty, the first B Corp–certified real estate brokerage and property management firm on the West Coast, and Dr. Andrea Matsumura, MD MS FACP FAASM MSCP, a.k.a. Sleep Goddess MD and I focus on empowering women to improve their health and well-being through optimized sleep.

The Women’s Foundation of Oregon believes that rest is resistance and a requirement for true justice. The first episode of the AWE Experience podcast dives into all things rest. Who are you when you are rested and what does it feel like to you? We get into it with the incredible Executive Director of For All Families Oregon, Candice Williams who shares her lived experience, historical perspective and insight into rest from a women’s perspective. Candice was a guest at our inaugural AWE Experience for Nonprofit Leaders and shares some of her thoughts about collective power, taking time for yourself and the power of the collective to do things differently. We invite you to take a break and join us.
