In today’s episode Debbie shares about her experience with burnout in her early twenties and the physical effects working too hard had for her.

She shares how managing diet, lifestyle, starting yoga and learning to rest and take breaks helped her to recover and how she engaged in nurturing her body and mind, and connecting with friends to have a more balanced and fulfilling life.

Through her coaching Lesa helps women to reclaim their right to thrive, unleash their true potential and live life with out limitations. As a school teacher, Lesa experienced frequent stress, overwhelm and burnout and spent every school holiday recovering from it.

13 JUL 2022 · My guest today, Romina, is a story coach and publisher guiding women in connecting with, articulating, writing and publishing their soul stories. Romina’s stress levels and burnout occurred when she found herself working in a dysfunctional organisation where her role was constantly changing and she had increasing expectations placed on her, without training or support to learn roles outside of her scope. After returning from maternity leave with a one-year-old and recently separated from her now ex-husband, Romina found herself thrown into the deep end once again and dissatisfied and disenfranchised with the job. As she decided she needed to move on, she was offered a redundancy package and path out. After leaving this role, the stress continued as she hunted for a ‘unicorn’ job that didn’t exist, wound up living with her parents for 6 weeks after breaking her ankle and then selling her apartment in a pandemic effected market. Romina took this 6 months without work as time to recover, and face these other life challenges that came up, before realising she wasn’t finding new work as a job wasn’t aligning with her. From here, she started to find work as a freelance writer, and now story coach and has come to a place of ease and balance in working on her own terms and with independence. For Romina, burnout didn’t just resolve the day she left that old job, but rather eased as she came into alignment with herself and found a way of working that serves her. She shared that it has been a process of exploration and finding what makes her feel good day to day, noticing when change is needed in her life, and stopping feeling guilty that have helped her heal the most. If you wish to connect with Romina you can find her at – Website -rominacavagnola.com Facebook - facebook.com/alchemyofalignment Instagram - instagram.com/alchemyofalignment Or join her Facebook group at - facebook.com/groups/storyalchemy Romina has also kindly offered listeners a free downloadable workbook to help with finding inspiration on tap and prompts for journaling.
