😩 ā€œAm I just tired, or do I need a full mental health intervention?ā€ If you’ve ever asked yourself this (while lying on the couch with a bag of chips questioning life), you are NOT alone. This week on The Phat Girl Chronicles, we’re diving into the real—and sometimes hilarious—ways burnout, exhaustion, and depression show up in our lives. We’re talking about how to tell the difference, why it’s okay to not always have it together, and how checking in with ourselves is one of the most important self-care moves we can make.šŸŽ™ļø We’re breaking down:• Burnout vs. Depression: What’s the real difference?• Signs you’re not just tired—you’re emotionally drained• Why the ā€œgrind cultureā€ mindset makes it worse• When it’s time to nap, and when it’s time to ask for help• How humor can be a lifeline—but not a substitute for healing✨ It’s okay to laugh. It’s okay to cry. It’s okay to get the support you need. Let’s normalize ALL of it.šŸŽ§ Stream it TONIGHT at 8PM EST on Facebook, YouTube, IG, and all your favorite podcast platforms on tomorrow!!!!We love bringing the laughs, the healing, and the hard conversations—but we wanna hear from YOU too!
