Ever felt like you’re too tired to live your actual life? Too burnt out to enjoy the things you usually love? Too exhausted to even recover? Yeah. Us too.In this episode of Too Much, Apparently, we (Carly and Alice — two therapists and recovering perfectionists with squishy brains) get real about burnout, bone-deep fatigue, and why “just rest” isn’t as simple as it sounds when you’re already running on empty.We unpack our own warning signs, spiral in real-time (as usual), and share the messy reality of living with fatigue while still trying to function like a “normal adult.”This time we talked about: 🎙️ We’ve felt this thing too (and we still do): being too tired to wash our hair, forgetting to brush our teeth, and pushing through with 20 reels in a week.👀 What it looks like in real life: collapsing into bed after work, canceling plans, or craving an empty diary day while others panic at the sight.🧠 Why our brains do it: sensitivity, neurodivergence, trauma, busy minds, and a culture that ties worth to productivity.🧍🏽‍♀️🧍🏻 The different ways it shows up: boom-and-bust cycles, chronic health conditions, denial and pushing through, and guilt about needing “too much” rest.🧰 Coping mechanisms: burnout menus, radical self-care, asking for help, embracing childlike joy, and redefining rest as part of productivity.🌱 How to make peace with it: You’re not lazy or behind — you’re carrying more than people can see, and healing means moving at the pace your body actually needs.Thanks for listening           💛💜🩷🩵🧡💬 New episodes every Monday.🎧 Follow now to join the conversation.🧡 CONNECT WITH US 🎙️ Podcast socials: → Instagram: @toomuchapparently → TikTok: @toomuchapparently → YouTube: Too Much, Apparently → Website: www.toomuchapparently.com👩‍💻 Carly Radford: → Website: www.carlyradford.com → Instagram: @the_sensitivity_therapist👩🏻‍💻 Alice Tew: → Website: www.alicetew.com → Instagram: @reparentingwithalice📩 Email us: [email protected] 🗓️ New episodes every MondayThis is a podcast that says: bring your too-muchness… we’re here for it.Disclaimer: Just a quick note to say this podcast isn’t therapy, and it’s not a substitute for professional support.
