About this episode
In today’s episode, I’m opening up about something I know many of us have felt — the slow unraveling that happens when we’re holding too much, too often, for too long. It’s not the loud crash of burnout, but the quiet ache of losing yourself in the work you once loved. I share my own story of what this looked like for me — the missed breaks, the late-night reports, the never-ending urgency — and why we need more honest conversations about this.This episode is a space for any therapist, practitioner, or helper who feels stretched thin, who loves their work but is starting to feel far away from themselves in it. I talk about why we created The Therapist (R)Evolution, how it’s not just a course, but a return — to self, to truth, to the work you want to do in a way that holds you, too.We explore:The hidden cost of overgiving and overextendingWhy urgency has become our default setting (and how to shift it)My own experience of slow burnout — and what helped me find my way backThe industry expectations we’ve inherited but never consented toWhat it looks like to work in a way that actually includes youIf you’re tired of feeling like you have to prove your worth by how much you can hold, this episode is for you. **Early Bird Offer:**The Therapist (R)Evolution is open now — a 4-week, self-paced course for therapists who are ready to slow down, reconnect, and find their way back to what matters.
