Ep. 133 - Burned Out and Drained? How to Recharge Without Guilt
You’re constantly on the go, juggling work, family, and life, but have you paused to check in with yourself lately? When was the last time you carved out space just for you—time to recharge, reflect, and reconnect with who you are beyond the roles you play? Burnout doesn’t hit suddenly, it sneaks up with signs like constant fatigue, apathy, and a craving for quick fixes like sugary snacks or endless distractions. Recognising these patterns is key to regaining your energy.
Recharging isn’t just about sleep (though that’s vital). It’s about tending to all areas of your energy—emotional, mental, physical, and even spiritual. What fuels you? Maybe it’s completing tasks, having meaningful conversations, or soaking in the buzz of a vibrant atmosphere. Knowing this helps you plan your week intentionally, balancing work, family, and restorative activities.
Try this: time-block your week. Map out work, errands, self-care, and downtime in 30-minute slots. Schedule moments to nourish all energy types—whether it’s a workout, a coffee date, or a quiet walk. When you plan like this, you create space to truly detach and relax, recharge, and avoid the burnout spiral. Small, deliberate adjustments can transform your energy, your week, and your life.
