In this episode, we’re going back to before. Before the pause, before the unraveling, before we admitted that “fine” wasn’t cutting it anymore. We’re talking about what life looked like when we were juggling careers, kids, and expectations—and silently burning out under the weight of it all.
If you’ve ever smiled through gritted teeth and said “I’m fine” when you were anything but… this one’s for you.
We’re getting honest about the warning signs we ignored, the pressure to keep going, and the moment we realized something had to change.
