In this episode, I open up about something many of us experience but rarely name, quiet burnout. It’s that subtle, heavy feeling of disconnection where you’re still functioning, still showing up, but inside… something feels off. The spark is dim. The joy is distant. And peace? It feels far away.

I share what I call the peace gap, that in-between space where you're not necessarily falling apart, but you're not flourishing either.

Together, we explore the hidden disruptors that quietly pull us out of alignment: performative peace, unprocessed micro-trauma, and a lack of natural rhythm. I tell the story of “Maya,” a woman who appeared to be thriving, but admitted she felt numb and unseen. Her story reflects what so many of us carry in silence.

Then I guide you through a gentle, grounding practice I call the 1-Minute Return, a simple moment to pause, reconnect, and remember that peace isn’t gone… it’s just waiting for you to come home.

I also offer reflections on what peace truly feels like, not as a performance, but as presence. And I give you tangible, heart-centered ways to begin healing from quiet burnout, with compassion and grace.

If you’ve been holding it all together but feeling empty inside, this is your invitation to breathe, soften, and come back to yourself.
