About this listen

There’s a kind of tired that sleep can’t fix.

In this episode of Seeker’s Soliloquy, we explore burnout not just as exhaustion, but as a spiritual and emotional reckoning—the moment the soul asks, “Where did I go?” Through the stories of Riley (Inside Out), Katniss (The Hunger Games), Wanda (MCU), and Rue (Euphoria), we unpack the many faces of burnout—emotional detachment, survival mode, control, and shame—and what it takes to come back home to yourself.

You’ll also hear from me about my own slow recovery journey: how I’m learning to move at the speed of healing, realign my values, and tend to the embers instead of relighting the blaze.

✨ Reflection questions from the episode include:

• What part of you has been asked to stay quiet just to keep things going?

• When did you last feel truly safe—without expectation or vigilance?

• Where in your life are you managing instead of mourning?

• What would it look like to offer yourself softness without condition?

This is a space for gentleness. For truth-telling. For the fire to warm you—not consume you.

🌱 Affirmations, spiritual insights (from Buddhism, Hinduism, Taoism), and journaling prompts included.

🕊️ If you’re in or recovering from burnout, may this episode meet you exactly where you are.
