In this episode of GlowTalks with Jess, Allison Caras, founder of Indigo Intermissions, joins Jess for a powerful conversation about burnout, chronic stress, mindfulness, and the importance of intentional rest.

Together, they explore the pressure of constantly achieving, how stress impacts the mind and body, and why so many people struggle to slow down in today’s fast-paced world. Allison shares her personal journey from ultra-luxury hospitality and academia into wellness work, and how yoga and mindfulness helped her reconnect with herself after experiencing burnout firsthand.

This episode is a reminder that rest is not weakness — it’s essential for creativity, balance, emotional well-being, and overall health.

✨ In this episode, we discuss:

• Burnout & nervous system overload
• Learning to rest without guilt
• Mindfulness & breathwork practices
• Work-life balance & boundaries
• Reconnecting with yourself through small daily habits
• Simple wellness tools for busy lifestyles
• The power of intentional pauses & “micro breaks”

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, emotionally drained, disconnected, or stuck in survival mode, this conversation will leave you feeling seen, grounded, and inspired.
