Sally Magee sees your hustle—and gently calls B.S. In this Positively Altered episode, she joins Dr. Cindy to talk burnout, boundaries, and the sacred art of slowing the hell down. With stories that’ll make you laugh, cry, and possibly cancel a meeting, Sally unpacks how grief, trauma, and people-pleasing sneak into our bodies and sabotage our healing. Her secret sauce? Stillness, somatics, and just enough sass to make self-care feel like a revolution. If you’ve ever felt exhausted from holding it all together, Sally’s here to help you let go—with grace, guts, and a side of goosebumps.
