Listen "50. Gaslighting myself into burnout"
Episode Synopsis
I almost didn’t record today…not because I didn’t have anything to say, but because this week has been a LOT. A rollercoaster of hormones, emotions and an invisible load I didn’t fully realise I was carrying… until I hit a wall. In this episode, I’m sharing what’s been coming up for me, from a long-awaited gynaecology appointment, to the emotional fallout that followed starting a new hormone treatment, to the honest realisation that maybe it wasn’t just the hormones after all.This is a personal story about burnout, emotional overload and what happens when we minimise our own needs (and why we need to stop doing that). Whether you're dealing with body image struggles, all or nothing cycles with food, or just trying to keep it all together, I hope this gives you a gentle nudge to pause, reflect and honour what you’re carrying.In this episode:The accumulation of invisible emotional, physical, and mental loadWhy hormones might not be the only factorHow burnout can creep in even when you “should be fine”The importance of not minimising your feelings or your needsA permission slip to stop pushing through and start honouring your capacityEnjoy!
