In this deeply relatable episode of Heal with Kimile, Kimile Pendleton pulls back the curtain on modern burnout - that soul-deep exhaustion that comes from pouring everything into work, family, and responsibilities while leaving nothing for yourself. She speaks directly to the caregivers, the providers, and the overachievers who pride themselves on being everyone's rock, but secretly wonder why they feel so drained.
Kimile explores the dangerous myth that strength means never needing rest, and how our constant giving can actually harm those we love most - especially our children. When we do too much for too long, we risk raising a generation that never learns to solve their own problems or weather life's inevitable storms. With equal parts tough love and compassion, she offers practical wisdom on setting boundaries that protect your energy, teaching kids true resilience (not dependence), and rediscovering the joy in your own life.
This is more than a conversation about self-care - it's a wake-up call for anyone who's been running on empty, a reminder that you can't pour from an empty cup, and that Sometimes the most loving thing you can do for others is to show them how to stand on their own.
Your well-being isn't selfish - it's survival. Tune in to start reclaiming your life.
