Thanks for sharing Colleen. Sounds like you are doing things to fill your cup now. That’s awesome. Even something small every day makes a difference.
Btw. I’ve seen that look myself LOL. Don’t knock it till you try it I say! 🙂

I can relate. For 14 years, my business ran me, and I’ve been wrestling it back in the opposite direction this past year. I eat well, take some supplements (some organic and food based) and have a healthy shake every day for breakfast that includes frozen fruit, pumpkin and sunflower seeds, cacao, green powder, amla powder and a few other things. I’m
getting back into running. Even running for a few minutes makes me feel better.

I’m a big fan of naturopathy, especially for chronic conditions. Glad to hear that worked well for you. I’ve tried to convince others to see one but I get “that look.”

In reply to Tess Wittler. Hi Tess, Thank you so much. It definitely helps when you know others are going through the same thing. I hope you're now putting yourself first and that it gets a little easier :)

After 10+ years of “grinding out content” as a freelance copywriter, I am there – at the corner of burned out and overwhelm. Throw in not one but two cross-country moves in the last 3 years and no vacations in the last 4, and I am spent. I’ve known this for a while, actually. This article was incredibly helpful in showing me that I am not alone and that I am on the right path to working past the burn out. Thank you, Maddie, for sharing your personal experience and your recommendations.
