After this conversation, I was left thinking about how long we can ignore ourselves before something gives. Ellen’s story is gentle, honest, and deeply human. It reminds us that burnout is not a personal failure. Sometimes it is simply a signal that something needs to change. I hope this episode resonates with anyone quietly questioning their work or their pace.
