Cultivate Your Joyful Life

037. What is Misalignment Burnout


Listen Later

In this episode, I dive deep into the concept of misalignment burnout, a unique form of exhaustion stemming from a disconnect between your values, desires, and your current way of life. I'll share personal stories, including a vulnerable account of my own experience with misalignment in a five-year relationship, and illustrate how this type of burnout is a slow, insidious process.

We’ll discuss common patterns that keep us stuck, like people-pleasing and perfectionism, and how millennials, in particular, face unique challenges from societal expectations. I’ll introduce you to practical steps for recognizing misalignment in your life and exploring your true desires, plus techniques like shadow work to reintegrate disowned parts of yourself. Join me as we navigate this everyday struggle and find a path back to alignment and fulfillment.
