Burnout... Imagine if the fix was as simple as just pee when you need to pee.

Well, Cait Donovan (who I adored chatting with) has landed on the hypothesis that it very well starts right there. Cait's spent years pulling apart the research on burnout after the seemingly unlikely reality of landing there herself as a passionate Chinese Medicine practitioner.

And what she discovered is that burnout is a whole lot more complicated than simply doing too much and needing a holiday.

We get into why some of us become so disconnected from the signals our bodies are sending us that we don't even realise we're ignoring them, how the pathways we've spent a lifetime building become the easiest ones for our brains to keep taking, and why recovery isn't about finding one magic answer.

We talk resentment, self-abandonment, boundaries, trauma, athletes, emotional regulation, and why sometimes the thing that finally helps isn't THE answer... it's just the next piece of the puzzle.

And honestly, there were a few moments where I thought, well f*ckety f*ck... that's uncomfortably familiar.
