Description

Burnout doesn’t always look like exhaustion. Sometimes it shows up as dread, disconnection, or feeling stuck in a practice that no longer fits. If you're doing everything “right” on paper but still feel misaligned, this episode is for you.

Kelly Higdon, LMFT, co-author of Therapist Burnout and co-founder of ZynnyMe and Business School for Therapists, shares her journey from running one of the largest clinics in her county to building a business rooted in integrity, embodiment, and joy. She and Kym dive into how therapists can recognize systemic burnout, reclaim their energy, and create practices that truly support their well-being.

In This Episode, We Cover:

• The root causes of burnout most therapists never see coming.
• How to tell when your practice is out of alignment.
• Why self-attunement is essential to healing and sustainability.
• Ways to rebuild capacity before making big changes.
• The role of privilege and systemic oppression in therapist burnout.
• How Business School for Therapists helps clinicians reclaim agency.
• What success really looks like beyond caseloads and titles.
