This episode unpacks what burnout really is and what it isn’t. Most people think they’re burned out, but they’re actually living in chronic energy debt: spending more emotional, mental, and physical energy than they ever deposit.
Through the lens of Energy Budgeting™, Mo explains the difference between true burnout (the crash), energetic overdraft (living on borrowed fuel), and energetic inflation (looking high-functioning while secretly numb). She breaks down what’s happening in your nervous system, why rest hasn’t been working, and how to start recognizing your energy patterns before the crash.
This is a reflection. A new language for what your body’s been trying to tell you.
💭 Take a listen, share it with your people, and start the conversation about energy debt...because the more we name it, the less we normalize depletion as success.
