Understanding Burnout & a Call to Revolution
Burnout isn’t always loud. Sometimes it sneaks in silently, hiding under the guise of productivity, masked by a smile, or tucked behind a calendar crammed with meetings, deadlines, and obligations. And for so many women in leadership, it's not just common; it's epidemic. I know, because I’ve lived it.
Let me take you back to 2021. I was running on fumes, juggling business, motherhood, and the crushing weight of societal expectations. One morning, I popped into a local diner, just hoping to grab some waffles and eggs. What I didn’t expect was to have a full-blown meltdown in public. That moment cracked something open in me. It was messy and mortifying, but it was also the wake-up call I needed.
From there, I began a journey back to myself. Therapy helped. So did research. I dove headfirst into understanding what burnout actually is, not just the symptoms, but the root causes. What I discovered was that recovery couldn’t just be about bubble baths and taking a weekend off. I needed a holistic approach that honored my body, mind, and spirit.
So I tried everything that resonated: Internal Family Systems to untangle the inner critics and caretakers in my head, Emotional Freedom Technique to release stress from my nervous system, and Reiki to reconnect to my energy in a meaningful way. What emerged was a totally new way of thinking about burnout; not just as something to fix, but something to prevent altogether.
That’s why I started The Glow Up Revolution, my podcast dedicated to radical recovery and aligned living. Because I know I’m not the only woman who’s felt this way. My mission now is to help other women break free from the outdated, exhausting systems we’ve been taught to live by. My work is all about creating sustainable strategies for life and business; ones that actually support your well-being and help you shine from the inside out.
If you’re feeling stuck, drained, or like you’re constantly chasing some unattainable version of “having it all,” I see you. You’re not alone, and you’re not broken.
Let’s glow up together.
