I'm back!
And honestly, I can't believe I'm saying that — but Transform into Wisdom Podcast is back, and I am so excited to be here with you again.
In this episode, I'm sharing everything that happened over the past several months — the burnout that forced me to stop, the healing journey that followed, and the lessons I'm bringing back with me.
This one is straight from the heart, no script, just me and my notes.
Here's what we cover:
- The moment I could literally feel my battery running out — and why it scared me
- Why a solo retreat in Colorado didn't fix things, and what my body was really asking for
- Four months of just being — and why doing nothing was the most healing thing I could do
- Tracing the roots: growing up with a narcissistic father, corporate burnout, and going all-in on entrepreneurship
- Why hustle culture is deeply unnatural — and what nature teaches us instead
- How to sit with pain without identifying with it
- The "fake bus" — chasing success that leads to burnout instead of fulfillment
- Work without balance is not worth it — period
- Spend less than you make: the financial habit that gave me the freedom to heal
- Finding your personal sovereignty when external systems are falling apart
This burnout saved my life.
I hope sharing it saves you from going through what I did.
Take care of yourself — and I'll see you in the next episode. 🌿
