Hey everyone, it's Sarah Liz King here! 🌟 After a much-needed break, I’m finally back on Holistic Health Radio. You might have noticed my absence, and I wanted to share what’s been going on behind the scenes. I’ve been navigating through a challenging period of burnout, feeling overwhelmed, and even dealing with depression. It was a tough journey, but I realised the importance of stepping back and seeking support. In this episode, I open up about my experience with burnout and the steps I took to recover. Whether you’re dealing with eating disorder recovery, hypothalamic amenorrhea, or just feeling burnt out, this episode is for you. I discuss how crucial it is to focus on self-care and remind ourselves that ‘done is better than perfect.’ Key Takeaways: 🔹 Burnout can happen to anyone, even those on a recovery journey. 🔹 Seeking professional support is vital for overcoming burnout. 🔹 Stepping back from non-essential tasks and prioritizing self-care can help restore your energy and enthusiasm. 🔹 Embracing a ‘done is better than perfect’ mindset can prevent burnout and promote overall well-being. I’m excited to continue our journey together, focusing on health, recovery, and self-care.
