Episode🎙️ 99. Back from Burnout: Navigating Midlife, Meltdowns & Figuring Sh*t Out
I’m back—and wow, it’s been a ride. In this brutally honest comeback episode, I’m peeling back the curtain on the chaos I’ve been living through. From the end-of-school madness to full-blown burnout, I’m talking about what it’s really like to hit a wall in midlife and wonder if you even recognize yourself anymore.
I share the ugly moments—crying in the car, sitting alone at a bar just to find peace, feeling disconnected from my marriage, and overwhelmed by motherhood and mental noise. I’ve been stuck, overstimulated, and running on fumes. This episode is messy, real, and completely unfiltered.
If you’ve been feeling lost, exhausted, or like you're carrying more than your share of the weight—this one's for you. No fixes, no polished advice—just truth, reflection, and figuring it out one breath at a time.
In this episode, I talk about:
Where I’ve been and why I disappeared
What burnout has looked like in my day-to-day life
Feeling invisible in my own marriage and life
Crying in parking lots and sitting in silence just to feel something
Why I had to stop trying to fix everything
Using this podcast as my safe space again
How I’m learning to trust myself and my voice
Why I’m choosing real over perfect going forward
