Do you feel like you’re “just stressed” at work, but deep down you know it’s more than that?

Have you been waking up tired, snapping at your family, and wondering why you can’t just push through anymore?

Are you afraid to set boundaries because you don’t want to let anyone down...but you’re the one paying the price?

In this episode of Midlife Mom Reset, I’m sharing why burnout at work is not the same as stress, and how I finally found relief by setting boundaries. I’ll take you behind the scenes of my own burnout story, the moment I realized stress wasn’t the real issue, and the simple boundary that changed everything for me. If you’ve been feeling exhausted, resentful, or disconnected, this conversation will help you recognize what’s really going on and take your first steps toward protecting your peace.

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
