Along the way, she delivers relatable stories, thoughtful metaphors (hello, Marie Kondo and Harry Potter’s phoenix!), and a massive announcement that longtime listeners will love.Spoiler alert: She's officially back in the weekly coaching chair—and you’re invited.What You’ll Hear in This Episode:What “dumpster decisions” are and why we make them during burnoutHow Kristen’s business and personal life were shaped by burnout recoveryThe importance of honoring your evolution without shameHow your nervous system holds the key to better habits, performance, and joyThe birth of Sondera, Kristen’s newest company helping people regulate, realign, and riseA sneak peek into the tools, coaching, and transformation waiting inside her new membershipThe full-circle moment: Kristen’s return to live weekly coaching (and how you can join!)Key Takeaways:Burnout doesn’t always mean burning everything down.Regulating your nervous system is the missing link between knowing what to do and actually doing it.Sometimes, the things you walked away from still belong with you—you just needed space to see it.Sustainable success is rooted in self-awareness, alignment, and nervous system integration.Special Announcement 🎉Kristen is back in the coaching seat!
