Insight into what working through your mental health can look like. Helpful if you're wondering about starting this care, if you're in the thick of it or if you're wondering what this experience might look like for a loved one. \

Healing from burnout isn't just about taking care of the symptoms, it's also about treating the main cause. Check out this episode to see if there are ways your workplace is creating a culture of burnout for you and others around you.

In the episode I reference this Gallup study results.

Today I delve into a bit of my past and why I think leadership and caring for others is so vital in today's society. Thanks for listening.

TW/CW: brief mentions of CA, alcoholism.

In this episode I talk about ways you can better understand your value/humanity and support your mental health. 

*TW/CW There are brief references to someone in my community who took their life. I try to touch on this very gently and it is not the focus of the episode but please skip this one if you think it will be at all harmful for you to hear allusions to this. Look after yourself and know that there's support if you need. Call or text 1737 if you're in NZ and need help. You. Are. Worth. It. With mana and aroha xx

In this follow up episode to episode 4 "How to set boundaries" you'll learn to release yourself from the other person's reaction/response to you setting a boundary and that boundaries can be set WITHOUT communication if that's more comfortable for you. The aim is to move forward towards your needs, it's okay if that process isn't smooth or perfect xx

I'm back! Thanks for your patience xx In this episode I talk a little about the importance in seeing your value as you are and not always basing it in what you do. Hope it helps <3

On this episode you'll hear why knowing doesn't automatically equal doing and how to support yourself through that. You'll learn the four stages of competence (Unconscious incompetence, conscious incompetence, conscious competence and unconscious competence) and why you need to be along for the learning journey and have compassion for yourself, not just expect immediate change. 

If you're the sort of person that prefers to help others rather than receive help, this episode is for you. In it, there's an acknowledgement of where this discomfort crops up, awareness built around how we avoid situations because of this discomfort and encouragement for you to keep working through and showing up despite this and seeking out opportunities to support yourself, because that's the best way to get the growth you want.   

A reminder that adapting to change is a cycle and you will approach things differently and have different needs depending on where you're at. This episode helps you become more self-aware and also apply that outwardly to people around you. Big love xx

It can be really difficult to support yourself when you're the one who usually pours all of your time and energy into supporting others. On this episode you'll learn some practices that can help restore your energy and avoid the burnout/productivity cycle. You got this xx
