Description

What if burnout isn’t a failure — but a message your body refuses to ignore?

In this episode, Dr. Dee sits down with Bron Watson, entrepreneur and founder of The Serenity Project, to talk about what happens when hustle stops working — and why alignment matters more than productivity.

After building businesses for over a decade, Bron faced two cancer diagnoses that forced her to confront a truth many high-achievers avoid: you can’t market, grind, or optimize your way out of a life that isn’t aligned.

This conversation explores:

• Why burnout is often a biological and emotional warning sign
• The cost of building success from exhaustion
• How alignment creates sustainable health, clarity, and impact
• What it really means to slow down without losing momentum

About Bron Watson:

Bron Watson built businesses for a decade before two cancer diagnoses taught her the most important lesson: you can’t market your way out of a life that isn’t working. Through The Serenity Project, she now helps others build lives and businesses rooted in alignment, clarity, and sustainability — not burnout.

Listen now and reflect on what your body might be asking you to change.

5 Key Takeaways From the Episode

1. Burnout is not a mindset issue — it’s often a biological and emotional signal.
2. Hustle can create short-term wins while quietly draining long-term health.
3. Alignment is not slowing down; it’s choosing sustainability over survival.
4. Illness and burnout often arrive when the body has been ignored too long.
5. True success supports your nervous system, not just your goals.
