If you've ever felt like burnout remedies just don't work for you, this episode might explain why. I'm joined by Lora Cheadle, JD, CHt—leadership wellness coach, TEDx speaker, and author—who introduces a powerful concept: sometimes what we think is burnout is actually betrayal. We explore how unspoken expectations, self-abandonment, and identity gaps can quietly exhaust us. This conversation is for every high achiever who's felt unappreciated, overextended, or lost in their own ambition.

In this episode, you will learn:

• The key difference between burnout and betrayal
• How hidden expectations and self-betrayal fuel exhaustion
• Lora's FUEL UP method for healing and reclaiming energy
• How to shift from victimhood to empowerment
• Small daily shifts to protect your energy and honor your values
