A behind-the-scenes conversation about burnout, over-functioning, and what it really takes to build a healing practice that supports both the practitioner and the client.

In this episode, I’m joined by Radha Dalal, a therapist, coach, and meditation teacher who helps people build self-trust, regulate their nervous systems, and reconnect to the stories and relationships that matter most.

What we explored:

• Why so many practitioners burn out by working harder than their clients
• The difference between classic therapy models and online coaching entrepreneurship
• How over-functioning and invisible labor show up in healing professions
• The growing craving for community, storytelling, and authentic human connection
• Why trust and relational depth matter more than “fast-food” healing models

When healing work becomes disconnected from sustainability, practitioners often start sacrificing their own wellbeing, relationships, and nervous systems in the name of helping others. Sustainable practices require boundaries, discernment, and remembering that we are human beings — not machines.
