Episode Summary

In this All In After Show mini-series of The All In Wellness Approach, we take your feedback from Episode 002, Balance After Burnout, and go deeper into the questions that came in after the episode aired.

Aubrey and Amanda unpack what burnout really looks like — and this time, they bring both researched answers and their own lived experience to every question listeners asked.

They walk through how burnout shows up emotionally, physically, and spiritually, why tools like the IMSAFE checklist matter, and what healthy coping actually looks like when you’re overwhelmed.
