There’s always a moment.The one where it all feels like too much.The one where your body says, “No more.”The one that breaks you open—and begins to rebuild you.

In this deeply personal episode, I share the moment my burnout came to a head—the crash I didn’t see coming but couldn’t avoid. It’s raw. It’s honest. And it’s the turning point that changed everything about how I live, work, and lead today.

If you’ve ever found yourself holding it all together until you just couldn’t… this episode is for you.

I’ll take you behind the scenes of:

* What life looked like leading up to the crash

* How burnout showed up

* And the quiet inner shift that began to take root after it all fell apart

🎧 Listener Reflection Prompt:What has your “burnout incident” looked like—past or present? What might your body be asking for now?
