Through Endurance We Conquer
Tired, Burned Out, and Still Showing Up
Feeling completely drained but still trying to hold it together? Same.
In this short, honest episode, I talk about what it means to show up when you’ve got nothing left in the tank. This week I didn’t have the energy to go all-in—but I didn’t want to disappear either. So I’m here doing the bare minimum, and maybe that’s exactly what you need, too.
I share:
- Why honoring your energy isn’t weakness—it’s wisdom
- How recovery weeks in training apply to real life
- The power of adjusting your goals instead of abandoning them
- A reminder that rest is part of the process
This one’s for anyone who’s tired, burned out, or just surviving right now. If showing up at all feels like a win—you’re not alone. Let’s be in it together.
