Let’s Talk About Burnout

Original Aired Date: June 26, 2022

Let’s talk about burnout. 

We’ve all sung this song before. 

Whether it was out front leading the tune, 

Joining in the chorus,

Or subconsciously humming it to ourselves as we pick up the broom.

We can’t sweep away the exhaustion, 

The depletion of energy. 

The jagged, gnawing feeling, 

That we are nearing our candle’s end. 

For too long burnout has seemed that necessary friend

You must deal with if you want to achieve. 

If you want to be the best at ______. 

Fill in that blank with whatever extrinsic achievement we are 

Chasing, 

Hoping it will finally show everyone we are enough. 

But we can out hustle our worthiness. 

Or we’ll find ourselves buried in a hole of our own making. 

We need to redefine what it means to be winning. 

To recognize that perfectionism

And burnout often goes hand in hand. 

Where is the balance? 

Where is the rest? 

What are the flags, 

Warning signs, 

And hints 

That can suggest when we’ve gone too far. 

On this week’s episode, 

Let’s talk openly about burnout. 

Together, let’s explore ways

We can invite more balance into our lives. 

Not just when it gets so bad it can’t be ignored.

But as a practice. 

A commitment. 

A path.

That leads us back home to ourselves.

Living Your Most Pleasurable Life With Kimra Luna

Imagine you have a million dollar business. 

Imagine you have a multi-million dollar business that took you years to build.  

Everyday you get to empower amazing people.

You’re living the dream. 

And loving it. 

Until one day - you’re not. 

Inside you start to feel a calling to serve a new mission. 

That inner-voice grows until it becomes a choir singing it is time to change direction. 

Would you have the courage to walk away from this super successful company that has brought you notoriety, wealth, and an enormous audience? 

This was the crossroads this week’s guest, Kimra Luna, found herself about a year ago. 

If you Google ‘Kimra Luna’ you’ll find a number of articles, including Forbes and Business Insider, detailing Kimra’s journey from “Welfare To $1M [Business Owner].”

As someone who has been in the entrepreneur community for a decade, Kimra’s name was one of the first you’d come across when looking for tips to start your business. 

A few months ago, I was on Facebook and saw Kimra post a Google drive folder that gave everyone complete access to her entire course curriculum, modules and resources. 

Previously you would have paid thousands of dollars to access this kind of content from Kimra. 

And now - it was all there - with the message from Kimra that she is leaving the business coaching world and embarking on her new mission a cosmic sensuality coach and pleasure activist.

I immediately messaged Kimra asking if she’d be open to sitting down for an interview to share her story and her journey. 

As you meant imagine - this turned out to be one of my favorite interviews of all time. 

Yes - Kimra shares details on what led to her decision. 

But the majority of this episode goes all in on the vital, important, and necessary mission and business that Kimra has launched. 

We talked about healing from trauma, sex, love, relationships, music, sensuality, self-love and activism.  Topics she covers every week on her podcast and Youtube channel.

Kimra took a deep dive into the core component of her new signature program - 30 Days of Slowing The Eff Down - and you discover your deepest desires, connect with your personal pleasure and shed the shame so you can channel your inner creatrix and live the life you deserve. 

I’m telling you - this episode is a must-listen!

Please do yourself the favor if absorbing the knowledge, compassion and tools Kimra openly shares during this episode. 

Alright.  This was the longest writeup ever - I know. 

Time to stop reading and start listening. 

Hit play.

Here we go.
