I wasn’t spiraling. I was buffering.

Burnout didn’t look like crying—it looked like me saying yes, posting through the pain, and letting men offer “business opportunities” that turned into massage requests.

This episode is about:

– What burnout really does to your brain

– Why scent heals what words can’t

– How @canaliving_’s Manifesting Candle reminded me softness is sacred

– And why you should never flatten yourself to be understood⁠

I was raised Catholic.

But this candle didn’t make me feel guilty—it made me feel whole.
