You know better—but you’re still pushing past your limits.

You’ve read the books. You’ve blocked off the calendar. You know what to do.

But somehow, the burnout keeps creeping back in.

Sound familiar?

This week on Alive & Well, we’re talking about a tough truth:
Sometimes, the very habits that make you high-performing are the same ones burning you out.

In this episode, I’m sharing 6 things I stopped doing in order to actually heal my nervous system—not just manage stress better on the surface. 

These are subtle but powerful shifts I made after my own burnout in 2017—and they’ve changed the way I live, work, and lead.

You’ll learn:

 🔹 How hustle patterns are often rooted in nervous system dysregulation
 🔹 Why high-functioning women get rewarded for being in survival mode
 🔹 What it means to create safety in your body instead of just checking another box

We’ll cover:

 ✔️ The link between people-pleasing and fawn responses
 ✔️ Why pushing through fatigue wires your body against rest
✔️ How morning phone-checks hijack your neurochemistry
✔️ What it takes to decouple productivity from self-worth
✔️ How joy helps rewire your nervous system for sustainability

These aren’t rigid rules or one-size-fits-all fixes. They’re nervous-system-aware, body-based pivots that support your capacity long term.

💡 Because healing burnout isn’t about doing less.

It’s about doing it from a regulated, rooted place.
