This week we’re chatting all things burnout. That feeling when your brain’s running on 1% battery, your to-do list is still screaming at you and everything is overwhelming. 

We’re joined by the wonderful Dr Mel Taitimu, a psychologist who’s here to help us unpack what burnout really is (spoiler: it’s not just being tired), and why it’s so common for women and parents. Plus, most importantly she shares the tools get back to feeling like yourself.

If you’ve been feeling like you’re running on fumes, this episode is your permission slip to slow down, breathe, and remember that you can’t pour from an empty cup.

As always, we hope you enjoy! 💛
