Burnout Isn't the Problem, Your Nervous System Is w/ Chelsy Bell Carpenter
Burnout Isn't the Problem, Your Nervous System Is
Think you can power through burnout with a vacation or a long weekend? Think again. Chelsy Bell Carpenter, former large-loss adjuster turned burnout recovery expert, reveals why your body won't let you rest—even when you're exhausted.
After quitting her 10-year insurance career in a single night, Chelsy discovered something terrifying: her cells were aging like she was in her 60s. She was 35. The culprit? A nervous system stuck in fight-or-flight mode for years.
In this episode, Chelsy breaks down:
- Why "work-life balance" is a myth (and what to aim for instead)
- The early warning signs of burnout that high performers miss for MONTHS
- How chronic stress literally changes your body at a cellular level
- Why discipline isn't dirty—it's your secret weapon
- The free tools that helped her reverse years of damage
Chelsy's launching her Built to Last workshop (completely free) to teach insurance professionals and high-achievers the Stabilization Method: nervous system regulation, authentic communication, and workplace disciplines that actually work.
If you've ever felt guilty for sitting still, or can't remember the last time you truly rested, this episode might save your life.
