From Burnout to Balanced: You CAN have it all!

February 25, 2025 • Diana Nguyen • Season 1 • Episode 57

In this episode, Jo Stone shares her journey through the depths of burnout, which pushed her to the brink of physical and mental exhaustion. We discuss the subtle yet damaging traits of:

o Perfectionism

o Deep over achievement because that’s all you know

o Constant search of external validation

o Obsession with logic and intellect

Learn how these traits can make it difficult to relax or feel satisfied, driving a constant need for more accomplishments but leading to a sense of emptiness and unfulfillment. Jo discusses the misconception that a simple vacation can break the cycle of burnout, explaining why deeper changes are necessary. As a former corporate maven herself, Jo understands the exhaustion that comes with being constantly 'on,' describing how this relentless drive can leave one feeling depleted and unable to 'turn off.' This not only affects personal well-being but also professional performance.

She also addresses a particularly poignant issue many women face: the impact of stress and burnout on physical health, such as difficulties with conception. She explains how the physiological effects of chronic stress can disrupt hormonal balance and affect fertility, sharing stories from her clients who struggled with becoming pregnant due to their high-stress careers and lifestyles.

Take a listen as Jo outlines practical steps for resetting one’s nervous system, why deconditioning is necessary as part of breaking the burnout cycle before feeling whole again.
