Healing from Burnout as an Ambitious Empath


Hello, friends, and thank you for tuning in to another episode of the Prosperous Empath podcast. Today, I’m sharing another solo episode, and we’re going to talk about a topic that is deeply personal to me. It was a huge part of my earlier career and something I struggled with a lot at the beginning of entrepreneurship, and it’s a topic that I notice across the board we ambitious empaths tend to struggle with – the experience of being burned out. I’m recording today’s episode, at the beginning of April, and last month in March marked three years since the beginning of the pandemic. If you think about the fear, the economic struggles, the emotional struggles, and the challenges in our family life and work-life balance that the pandemic created, I think it makes sense that so many people are feeling burnt out right now. Then you combine all of that with the fears of an impending recession, and the great resignation, and all of the other themes that we’ve been noticing in our workforce, it makes a lot of sense. So in today’s episode, I want to provide a little bit more of a historical framing for why you or someone you know may be experiencing burnout right now and what can you do about it. You’ll leave this episode feeling equipped with more choices and options to take care of yourself in the face of burnout.

Ground Yourself in 2025: Choosing a Word of the Year

If you’re listening in real time, happy New Year! I hope you all had a wonderful holiday season and were able to fill it with the people and things that are meaningful for you. The first episode of the year is one of my favorites to record because it’s the episode in which I share my word of the year. Having a word of the year has consistently served as such an empowering practice for me, for grounding and for calling in a new experience or a way of being that I want to cultivate in the new year. Another thing that I love about a word of the year rather than resolutions is that it focuses on being instead of doing – which is something that can be so restorative for empathprenuers. With that, I’m excited to reflect back on 2024 and what my word of the year made possible as well as my word for the upcoming year. I hope this episode encourages you to take the time to reflect and declare your own word. May your 2025 be prosperous, and may it be filled with purposefulness.
