  • 120: The ‘Superwoman’ Myth Is Burning You Out

    Send us a text

    In this episode, we’re debunking the ‘Superwoman’ myth—the belief that you must excel at everything, from parenting to work, while still looking after everyone else. It’s exhausting, unsustainable, and it’s burning you out.

    Join me as we explore:

    • How societal pressures and internalized expectations perpetuate the 'not enough' mindset.
    • Why letting go of perfection can be the key to thriving.
    • Practical steps to set boundaries, find joy in imperfection and prioritize your well-being.

    Send us a text

    Are you stuck in survival mode, simply ticking off endless tasks and carrying an emotional load that feels impossible to drop? It’s time to change that.

    In this episode, we go beyond managing stress and anxiety to explore how to shift your mindset and become the person you truly want to be. 

    Thriving isn’t something reserved for when life feels easy—it’s something you can cultivate in every season, even when things feel overwhelming.

    We’ll talk about how to stop living on autopilot and start prioritising what brings you joy and fulfilment. You’ll learn to break free from burnout, reconnect with yourself, and create daily.

  • 118: Comparison and Its Impact on Stress and Mental Health

    Send us a text

    In this episode, I explore why we compare ourselves to others and how this silently fuels stress and anxiety. 
    From social media’s curated perfection to real-life pressures, comparison can trigger overwhelming emotions and keep you in self-doubt. But it doesn’t have to be this way.

    I’ll unpack the psychology behind comparison, how it impacts your mental health, and, most importantly, practical ways to recognise your triggers and build emotional resilience.

    I will also share the other side of how compression can be helpful.

    You’ll learn how to escape the comparison trap, regulate your stress response, and refocus on what truly matters to you.

  • 112: Burnout Isn’t Your Fault—But Here’s Why It’s Still Your Problem

    Send us a text

    Did you know that 84% of healthcare workers reported burnout in 2022? This shocking figure continues the troubling trend of rising burnout rates—86% in 2021 and 80% in 2020 (Mental Health Australia, 2022).

    But why are these stats increasing, and why aren’t we addressing the root causes?

    In this episode, I unpack why burnout isn’t your fault—but why it’s still your responsibility to take action. Burnout doesn’t happen overnight. The signs often creep in slowly, and you might dismiss them as usual or not even realise they’re happening.

    I’ll help you recognise the signs of burnout, understand how your stress responses and triggers contribute, and share practical strategies for supporting yourself in the workplace.

    Everyone’s experience with stress is different, and knowing how to manage it effectively can make all the difference.

    Burnout isn’t just an individual issue—it’s a societal challenge that requires systemic change. But in the meantime, the first step is awareness and action.

    Join me as I explore how you can regain control of your well-being, even in a demanding, high-stress environment.

  • Episode 111. Why Self-Care Isn’t a Luxury?

    Send us a text

    Podcast Episode: "Why Self-Care Isn’t a Luxury"

    Burnout among professionals in high-stress environments, like health workers and other frontline professionals, remains a significant issue, yet it’s often viewed as solely an individual challenge. 

    In this episode, we dismantle the myth that self-care is a luxury. 

    I explore why self-care is essential for regulating our nervous system and how we can support ourselves effectively and sustainably when feeling overwhelmed or triggered.

    I'll discuss why self-care extends beyond personal responsibility and into collective action, especially in industries where stress and anxiety are prevalent. 

    Well-being requires a supportive culture that acknowledges the role of workplace structures and community support to build individual resilience.

     I’d love to hear your thoughts: What does self-care mean to you in your workplace?

    Come chat with me on this conversation on Instagram and how you and your organisation approach self-care.
