info_outlineToday, on Can’t Be Contained, I’m dropping into the FINAL chapter of our Burnout Series—and this one’s a game-changer. We’re talking all things Spiritual Burnout: what it is, how to spot it when it sneaks in, and the practical tools to find your way home to yourself and Source. I got real about my own experiences with that deep, soul-level exhaustion, and how “white-knuckling” your way through life isn’t the vibe.
In this episode, I’ll be sharing my personal toolkit for navigating the ache of spiritual disconnection—think: breathwork, service, surrender, and actionable ways to reestablish your connection to something greater. We’ll dig into the difference between living all grind, no grace versus actually letting yourself be held and guided. I’ll unpack golden research from Dr. Lisa Miller, and answer the big question: how can we hold all of life, without letting it get heavy?
Within today’s conversation, you’ll hear:
➤ How to recognize spiritual burnout (and why it hits hardest when life looks “fine” on the outside)
➤ The role of breathwork in coming back to Source
➤ Why service is spiritual, and how giving transforms you
➤ Letting go of doing it all, and allowing grace to move through your life
If you’ve been feeling numb, lost, or just over carrying the weight of the world alone, this episode is for you. It’s an invitation to drop what isn’t yours, tune into your own divine guidance, and trust that you’re never, ever alone. I’ll also share my go-to practices (like the Pause Breathwork app) to help you reconnect anytime, anywhere.
So take a breath, and join me as we get radically honest about burnout and reclaim your connection to Soul, Spirit, and true support. Whether you’re deep in burnout or just looking for more meaning, you’ll find tools and heart-centered wisdom you can’t afford to miss.
