What does it feel like to be running on empty? The Heavyweight crew gets real about recognizing when our tanks are low and shares powerful strategies for refilling them.
From physical symptoms like anxiety and exhaustion to emotional signs like irritability and frustration, the hosts open up about how burnout affects them. "When I'm on empty, my responses are short, very sarcastic. Don't ask me no dumb shit," one host admits. That raw honesty sparks a deep conversation about resilience, boundaries, and self-care.
Mindfulness emerges as a crucial tool, but as the crew points out, "Being mindful is one of the hardest things to be." They dive into personal stories of navigating loss, violence, and overwhelming stress—proving that resilience isn’t about avoiding hardship but learning to take it one step at a time.
If you're feeling drained by work, relationships, or life's constant pressures, this episode will give you practical strategies for bouncing back stronger. Join the conversation and find strength in the struggle. 💪
