What if your drive to “push through” is actually a sign you’re stuck in survival mode? 

In this episode, Katarina sits down with Tara Christodoulou, a certified recreation therapist and mental health specialist with over a decade of experience in employee wellness, crisis stabilization, and burnout prevention. Tara has worked with everyone from at-risk youth to corporate leaders, supporting individuals navigating stress, addiction, and the demands of high-pressure environments.

Together, they uncover how unprocessed stress quietly fuels burnout - and why awareness is the first step toward genuine wellbeing.
