You shouldn’t have to break to be believed.
You shouldn’t have to collapse to be taken seriously.
In this fiery and honest episode, Alexa Starks calls out the toxic normalization of burnout—especially for high-achieving moms who are praised for pushing through while quietly falling apart.
She shares her own story of returning from maternity leave to back-to-back meetings, pumping while rocking a contact-napping baby, and being called a “rockstar”—when what she really needed was rest, support, and systems that actually made space for caregiving.
You’ll learn:
Why burnout isn’t a personal flaw—it’s a symptom of an underbuilt system
How over-functioning becomes invisible—and dangerous
The leadership cost of constant self-sacrifice
Tangible ways to drop, delegate, and draw the line (without guilt)
Mantras and mindset shifts to protect your energy like the asset it is
This isn’t just a vent session—it’s a rebellion against the lie that being a good mom or a strong leader requires you to suffer.
