When I first burned out in my business, I thought it was from overwork. But the real root wasn’t hustle—it was trauma.

In this deeply personal episode, I open up about how perfectionism, people-pleasing, and old childhood wounds drove me to exhaustion. I talk about how I ignored rest, skipped meals, and pushed through every red flag until I hit my breaking point. What helped me heal wasn’t just strategy—it was learning to regulate my nervous system.

I’m sharing the tools that helped me stop spiraling, reconnect with my body, and start building a business from a place of safety and sustainability—not survival. If you’ve ever felt stuck in overwhelm or anxious no matter how much you “get done,” this one’s for you.
