Episode 228: Rewriting Your Life After Burnout with Kim Metzen
Manage episode 501186324 series 2863410
Burnout can hit hard, sometimes showing up as panic attacks, anxiety, and complete overwhelm — even when, from the outside, everything seems “perfect.”
In this episode, burnout psychologist and coach Kim Metzen shares her personal journey from high-achieving corporate life to feeling completely disconnected from herself — and how she rebuilt a life aligned with her health, energy, and purpose.
We explore:
- The signs of burnout you might be ignoring
- How over-identifying with work can mask low self-worth
- Techniques to calm the nervous system and reconnect with your body
- Simple, practical tools to navigate stress, anxiety, and overwhelm
Kim’s story is a reminder that even the most “successful” lives can become unaligned — and that transformation is possible when you listen to your body and take courageous action.
