    Episode 29. Goodbye (For Now)
    2025/02/20

    This will be our final episode (for now).

    Between busy schedules and Kate moving in a different career direction, she and Rhia made the difficult decision to let the podcast go. They discuss the decision in detail in the episode, but it wasn't one that was made lightly. We’ve absolutely loved highlighting your stories, speaking with our amazing guests, and helping people feel less alone in their burnout journeys! But making an independent podcast is a lot of work that sadly isn't sustainable for us at this point.

    When we made the decision, we didn’t know that things would be more stressful than ever. But we aren’t leaving you totally defenseless: This episode includes some tips for coping with the current state of the world. It also includes chat about the current administration, the Kendrick Lamar halftime show, and the supreme hotness of Jalen Hurts.

    Rhia is not leaving the burnout fight! Follow her on TikTok and Instagram for daily anti-burnout tips, and hire her to speak to your company if you want to reduce burnout risk and increase productivity!

    In March, Kate is launching a brand new podcast called Now It’s Ruined where she and her best friend ruin everyday objects, events, and people with dark facts. You can follow the podcast on Patreon and YouTube, and follow her individually on TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube.

    And keep your eyes peeled: We might pop back up once in a while.
