In this episode, we have an honest conversation about burnout: what it is, how it has impacted our lives, and how the beliefs instilled in us growing up can contribute to burnout in adulthood. We reflect on the pressure to tie our worth to our productivity and the mindset shifts needed to separate our value from achievement in order to heal, create healthier boundaries, and prevent future burnout.
