Are you caught in the cycle of ignoring your needs, telling yourself there’s no time for rest, reflection, or even being human? In this week’s episode, I’m joined by Heather Chauvin, a renowned advocate for emotional well-being, to dive deep into the struggles of high performers who push themselves to the brink.
We’ll explore the concept of “time debt” and how constantly postponing self-care can lead to emotional and physical burnout. Drawing from themes of vulnerability and resilience, Heather shares strategies for setting boundaries, prioritizing your humanity, and breaking free from the relentless pursuit of productivity.
This conversation is a wake-up call for anyone who feels trapped by their own expectations—tune in to learn how to reclaim your time, your health, and your sense of self.
