The Checked Out Queen: Going Through The Motions On Shift


Listen Later

Feeling like you're just a body in scrubs going through the motions? You might be the Checked Out Queen: one of the four burnout types no one talks about but way too many of us are living. If you dread your alarm, completely tune out on shift, and wonder when you stopped giving a damn… this one’s for you.

In this episode of Shift Happens, we dive into:

  • The telltale signs you’re deep in burnout (and not just tired)

  • What actually causes you to check out emotionally

  • How to close the stress cycle so you stop feeling numb and start feeling human again

  • Tiny joys, movement, and other doable ways to reconnect with yourself

This isn’t about quitting your job or journaling your way out of burnout. It’s about reclaiming you.
