Send us Fan Mail Burnout isn’t about weakness or poor coping — it’s a response to too much, for too long. This episode looks at how burnout develops, how to spot it early, how it affects mental and physical health, and how it often intersects with people-pleasing, caregiving, and control around food or the body. We’ll also talk about recovery — and how burnout can become a catalyst for meaningful change. Thanks for listening, I hope this episode will be helpful. Philippe

And a bit world-tired. Thanks for listening, I hope this episode will be helpful. Philippe
