The Wirth Wellness Podcast Episode#7- Burnout, Compassion Fatigue, and Trauma Recovery with Guest Emily Robbert.
Description:
Are you exhausted in every way imaginable, but cannot pinpoint why? Does life feel heavy, all the time? Has your creativity been suppressed? Are activities that were once energy-boosting, now draining you? Do you find yourself shrinking away from situations that require large empathetic capacity? Do you feel disconnected from your heart and passion, in your day-to-day life, on a regular basis? Have you experienced changes in your personality? You might be suffering from a case of burnout!
My guest, Emily Robbert, shares:
Her story of burnout in her early twenties
Who is most susceptible to burnout, and what symptoms to look for, if you think you have it
How chronic fatigue and compassion fatigue, are separate, but related, to burnout
Why recovery requires more than simply “taking a break”
How trauma plays a role in burnout, and what do to about the the unaddressed trauma in your life
The strategies she used to re-calibrate and heal, that have equipped her to better manage her high stress role as a wife, foster mom, and orphan advocate, living in a third world country
