How to Overcome Burnout and Pivot with Purpose w/ Kellie Grutko
In this episode: We dive deep into the realities of burnout, feeling stuck, and how to pivot into a life that feels truly fulfilling. We explore why burnout isn’t just stress — it’s a signal that your growth has stalled, and how to recognize the signs before it takes over. From the “Sunday pit in your stomach” to the loss of excitement for projects that once sparked joy, we unpack what it really means to move beyond a default path and reclaim your sense of purpose.
You’ll hear practical tools and strategies for taking action, including the power of mindset work, curiosity, and celebrating small wins. Kellie shares how exercises like the Wheel of Life and Clarity Canvases can help you visualize your ideal future, build momentum, and make incremental progress toward meaningful change. This episode is packed with actionable insights for anyone ready to stop going through the motions and start living intentionally.
Meet my guest: I had the honor of speaking with Kellie Grutko, Founder and Chief Pivot Officer of Purposeful Pivot. After nearly 20 years in corporate marketing, Kellie experienced firsthand what it feels like to have a “dream job” yet feel unfulfilled. She used that experience to create Purposeful Pivot, a company dedicated to helping accomplished women move through corporate burnout, define their core values, and pivot toward lives that feel purposeful and joyful.
Kellie is a heart-centered coach, vision-focused strategist, and advocate for mindful transitions. In this conversation, she shares her personal journey, the tools she uses to guide her clients, and how embracing curiosity, self-honesty, and a supportive community can transform the overwhelming process of change into something inspiring, manageable, and deeply fulfilling.
Quote/Piece of Advice: Just dream big, work the small wins, and enjoy the journey.
