About this listen
You ever feel like you're doing all the things... and none of them are giving you life anymore? You might be in burnout and not even realize it.
In this episode of Confessions of a Multi-Hyphenate, we’re diving into what burnout actually looks like (hint: it’s not always just being tired), why it hits multi-hyphenates especially hard, and how you can start building a life that includes rest on purpose—not just when you crash.
5 Burnout-Busting Strategies:
- Name It + Normalize It – Burnout isn’t weakness; it’s a signal.
- Micro-Rest Moments – Small breaks throughout the day = big energy shifts.
- “No Work” Zones – Create spaces where productivity isn’t allowed.
- Reconnect with Joy – Do something just because it feels good (not for the ‘gram).
- Ask for Help – Your worth isn’t measured by how much you carry alone.
Quote of the Week: “You can’t be hesitant about who you are.” — Viola Davis
(Because burnout makes us forget ourselves, and rest helps us remember.)
Multi-Hyphenate Move of the Week: Block off TWO hours this week for intentional, non-negotiable rest. Protect it like your next big deadline and don’t use it to get ahead. Use it to come back to yourself.
