About this listen

Hi everyone, it’s Dr. Sarah Wilson, and I’m back with a solo episode that I recorded fresh off a much-needed trip to Costa Rica. If I’m being honest, this one is coming from a deeply personal place.

We often talk about burnout as something that happens after a major life event—but what about the kind that sneaks in slowly, without warning, until one day your body, mind, or even your relationships say, "Enough"? That was my 2025.

In this episode, I open up about what it looked like to be a women’s health doctor, a clinic owner, and a mom—while quietly losing a sense of control in my own life. I share the signs I missed, the habits that slipped, and how the relentless drive to "keep going" eventually disconnected me from my own values. I also talk about what it took to find my way back.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • What burnout can look like before it becomes obvious
  • How subtle shifts in routine can have a ripple effect on your health
  • Why do we often override the warning signs in our own bodies
  • How stress, sleep, food, and mindset all intersect—especially for women
  • How to realign your habits and routines when you feel like you’ve lost control
  • The power of rest, reflection, and support when you’re trying to find your way back to yourself

This episode is for you if:

  • You’ve been feeling off and can’t quite name why
  • You know something needs to change, but you’re too exhausted to figure it out
  • You’ve struggled with maintaining your health habits in stressful seasons
  • You’re craving permission to slow down, reflect, and re-center
  • You’re curious how someone in the health space navigates their own burnout

This one’s raw, real, and deeply personal—but I believe that’s where some of the most impactful healing conversations begin. I hope it helps you feel a little more seen, and a lot less alone.

With care, Dr. Sarah Wilson
