Feeling drained, disconnected, or like no amount of rest ever feels enough? In this episode, Britt reframes burnout as more than exhaustion, it’s the body’s way of protecting us and signaling when we’ve pushed past our limits. She explores why women are especially vulnerable, how cultural expectations feed depletion, and the nervous system science behind what’s really happening when you hit that wall. You’ll walk away with somatic tools for listening to your body, permission to slow down without shame, and a fresh perspective on burnout as an invitation to realign with what’s truly sustainable and life-giving.
