Listen Later

Are you feeling overwhelmed and stressed out all the time? Are you having a hard time focusing on anything or feeling depressed? Are you feeling like you'll end up burning out if you don't take care of yourself?

"The body is always communicating with us, sending signals and signs, much like the car dashboard lights can communicate when things are awry or something's low and it alerts you."


April Likins is a board-certified health coach, trained at both Duke Integrative Medicine and the Institute for Integrative Nutrition. Driven by her own experience hitting burnout, which led to a health collapse, she's fiercely passionate about helping women thrive inside and out. April's specialty is helping professional women and female entrepreneurs reduce stress, find balance, and feel the joy and freedom to walk in their purpose, passions, and callings.


In 2013, April hit burnout after her dad passed away. She had been working excessively and not taking care of herself and it led to a complete health collapse. April was bedridden for about a year and a half and saw dozens of doctors and specialists to figure out what was wrong with her. She realized that she had been using work as a coping mechanism to avoid her feelings and that this had weakened her immune system and set her up for burnout. April now works with clients to help them prevent burnout by checking in with themselves regularly and listening to their bodies. She also advises them to set healthy boundaries around work and ensure they get enough sleep.


In this episode, you will learn the following:

1. The importance of regular check-ins with oneself to identify needs for physical and emotional health

2. The need to set healthy boundaries around work in order to prevent burnout

3. The importance of quality sleep in reducing stress and preventing burnout
