Sophie Scott: How to Heal Yourself From Burnout

For many Mums, we are living on the edge of complete burnout. Surviving but not thriving, feeling like we are doing so many things but none of them very well. Host Amelia Phillips and journalist Sophie Scott OAM discuss that feeling burnt out is not ok. This is not how we are meant to be living our best years. Burnout is stealing our joy and there is so much that can be done, including getting to the root cause.
