Is your burnout hiding in plain sight?

You’re still getting things done. You’re showing up to meetings, hitting your goals, and doing “all the right things.” But underneath it all… you’re exhausted. Maybe you’re more irritable than usual. Maybe you’re waking up at 3am thinking about work. Or maybe you’re just going through the motions, ticking the boxes and wondering why it all feels so flat.

Podcast Details: 

In this episode of The 360 LeadHERship Podcast, I talk about the quiet kind of burnout that high-achieving women leaders often miss until it’s already affecting their energy, executive presence, and ability to lead strategically.

Burnout doesn’t always look like collapse. It can look like over-functioning. Like perfectionism. Like pushing through, but at a cost.

Whether you're a Director, VP, or senior leader trying to juggle it all, this episode will help you press pause, reset your perspective, and start showing up for yourself again before burnout takes hold.

Because the truth is, you don’t have to choose between a high-impact leadership role and a life you love. You get to have both.

Tune in to Discover:

  • The three quiet red flags that signal burnout (that most women leaders ignore)
  • How your nervous system and mindset impact your leadership energy and clarity
  • What burnout looks like for high-achievers (hint: it’s not what you think)
  • How to lead with confidence and clarity without overworking
  • Why mindset shifts are the missing piece when it comes to work-life balance
