Why Self-Care Will Not Fix Burnout

Text your thoughts and questions! As an entrepreneur, caregiver, and productivity coach, I"ve learned a critical truth about burnout that most people miss. It"s not just about being tired—it"s about a complete system shutdown that no bubble bath can repair. Burnout is more than occasional stress or a bad week. It"s a persistent state of emotional, physical, and mental exhaustion that can derail your personal and professional life.  When you"re experiencing burnout, simple self-care strategies like a massage or a weekend getaway become nothing more than temporary band-aids on a much deeper wound.  In this episode, I"ll break down what burnout really looks like, why traditional self-care approaches fall short, and provide actionable strategies to help you recover and thrive.  Whether you"re a high-achieving professional, an entrepreneur, or someone feeling overwhelmed by life"s demands, understanding burnout is the first step to reclaiming your energy and passion.
