Manage episode 487930778 series 3560372
From the outside, it probably looks like you’re doing it all—and doing it well. You’ve checked all the boxes: crushing it at work, holding things down at home, maybe even taking on a volunteer project or two.
But on the inside? You might be asking yourself: How much longer can I keep going like this?
In this week’s episode of The Mental Offload, I sit down with Lori Oberbroeckling—senior corporate leader, mom of four, author of Secrets of Supermom, and someone who’s lived through the very burnout she now helps other women recover from.
We’re talking about that dangerous space high-achieving women fall into when busy becomes a badge of honor, and even the things we once loved start to feel like obligations.
You catch yourself saying, “It’s just this week, next week will be better”...for months on end. Meanwhile, your energy is slowly draining away.
What You'll Learn:
The often-overlooked early warning signs of burnout for working mothers
Why being overloaded doesn’t mean you’re a failure
How to set boundaries without blowing up your life
What parts of the ‘supermom’ label to embrace
Burnout isn’t inevitable. Listen in for Lori’s inspiring take on the small changes that can steer you out of burnout.
