Burnout isn’t a buzzword—it’s a lived reality for so many, especially in high-stress, high-stakes professions like nursing. In this episode, we’re pulling back the curtain and getting real about our own burnout stories. Yes, we're nurses, but this conversation is for anyone who's ever felt like they're running on empty—physically, emotionally, or spiritually.
We talk about:
What burnout looked and felt like for us
What actually helped us heal—and what didn’t
The roles both the system and our own patterns played in our burnout
How to recognize early warning signs in your own life or career
What we’d say to someone just starting their dream job (or barely surviving it)
This episode is equal parts vulnerable and validating. We cry, we laugh, we own our stuff. We talk about the uncomfortable side of rest—how hard it can feel to slow down when you're used to being the one who gives 110% all the time.
And to lighten it all up, Hannah closes the episode with a cheeky little “pharmaceutical ad” parody that will have you giggling while still thinking deeply about your own relationship with rest and recovery.
Whether you’re a nurse, a caregiver, a corporate go-getter, or a creative soul trying to keep up—this one’s for you. Let this episode be your permission slip to pause, breathe, and reflect. You’re not alone, and there is another way.
