In this insightful episode, I'm honored to have an extraordinary guest, my wife, Aimiende Negbenebor Sela, an award-winning filmmaker known for her deep and poignant storytelling
Together, we explore something that people seem to be experiencing more and more, emotional exhaustion, a phenomenon that often leaves us drained and devoid of energy. Often described as feeling “spent.”
We have been through enormous changes and challenges in the past 6 months. And believe me, WE feel it. And from the conversations we’ve been having, and the requests I’m increasingly getting, we think that at times, you might be feeling it too.
We delve into recognizing the subtle yet significant signs of burnout and the importance of acknowledging big life changes. Aimiende shares her personal experiences and insights on the criticality of self-awareness, especially in moments when you feel you have nothing left to give.
This episode is not just about identifying the problems but also about finding practical and effective solutions. We discuss the transformative power of movement and yoga in altering our emotional and physical state, reducing stress, and rekindling our inner vitality. Aimiende and I talk about the importance of being patient with oneself and the magic of starting small. By mastering small tasks, we can initiate a domino effect leading to substantial changes in self-perception and overall well-being.
Whether you're experiencing a phase of emotional exhaustion or seeking ways to prevent it, this episode is a treasure trove of wisdom. It's about understanding that self-mastery is a journey, not a destination, and that every step, no matter how small, counts. Join us in this enlightening conversation and take a step towards reclaiming your emotional strength and resilience.
