“The exhaustion you feel after survival mode isn’t laziness,
it’s biology.”
I am sharing one of the most transformative experiences of my life with you.
Nearly a decade ago, I put myself in timeout for an entire
year and emerged as the most aligned, intentional, purpose-filled version of myself. Looking back, eight key practices helped me recover and reconnect with myself.
If you are feeling disconnected, discouraged, overwhelmed, or
emotionally exhausted, check in with today’s episode to determine if you need a timeout.
Takeaways

Regular self-care practices are essential for mental and emotional health.
Honesty with yourself is the first step to recovery.
Rest is not laziness—it’s a biological necessity.

Asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness.
Honoring your capacity isn’t limiting.
