Episode 6: Take Back Your Time and Your Life: Self-Care Strategies with Daniela Wolfe

Burnout can feel like a slow erosion of who you are. In this honest Radiant Moments conversation, Michelle speaks with licensed social worker, coach and author Daniela Wolfe about her own burnout journey and the small, powerful shifts that helped her move from exhausted to empowered. Daniela shares practical micro moments, a one‑minute breathing practise, and the Exhausted‑to‑Empowered Formula — a three‑part framework of mindset, time planning and everyday self‑care that busy carers can actually use.

Inside This Episode:

• Why burnout can arise from both stress and passion — and how to recognise it early
• The power of micro moments: one‑minute practises that stack into real change
• How daily gratitude builds mental fitness and improves resilience
• The Exhausted‑to‑Empowered Formula: mindset, time planning and self‑care explained
• Practical ways to set boundaries that protect energy without shame
• When and how to ask for help — why it’s a strength, not a weakness
• Simple time‑planning tools (Eisenhower matrix, buffer time, Parkinson’s Law) to reduce overwhelm

Why This Matters: Caregivers do essential work and often put their own wellbeing last. Daniela’s compassionate, practical approach reframes self‑care as a daily necessity — not an indulgence — and gives busy carers workable tools for reclaiming time, energy and joy.

Weekly Caregiver Challenge: This week, practise one “one‑minute micro moment” five times a day. Set a reminder, breathe for one minute (box or 4–4–4 breathing), notice one small thing you’re grateful for, and then get on with your day. Share your wins with #JandBStories or tag @JandBInspired — I’ll be cheering you on!
