I didn’t see it coming.
The burnout!
It wasn’t dramatic or sudden. It crept in quietly, disguised as busy days, sleepless nights, and
that dull ache of “What’s the point?” that I could never quite shake.
To the outside world, I looked fine.
Productive. Capable. Holding it all together.
But inside?
I felt like a version of myself I barely recognized—blurry around the edges, like my spark had
dimmed and no one had noticed… not even me.
And then one day, I looked in the mirror and realized:
I wasn’t broken.
I was burned out—from a lifetime of being who I thought I had to be.
🔥 The Burnout No One Talks About
This wasn’t the kind of burnout that a bubble bath or weekend getaway could fix.
This was soul-deep.
It was the result of years spent silencing my truth.
Putting others first.
Shrinking to fit in.
I had mastered the art of being who everyone needed me to be…but in the process, I’d slowly
erased me.
And here’s what I’ve learned, both in my own life and through the incredible women I coach:
Midlife burnout isn’t about doing too much.
It’s about not doing enough of what lights you up.
The Pivot: Not Reinvention—But Revelation
What I craved wasn’t a total reinvention.
I didn’t want to burn my life down. I wanted to come home to myself.
To remember the version of me who used to feel free, fierce, and fully alive.
And that’s the pivot no one talks about.
The shift from:
● People-pleasing to personal power
● Being busy to being bold
● Fitting in to finally being seen
You Don’t Need to Do More—You Need to Be Seen
So many of us are tired because we’re hiding.
We’re editing ourselves to be palatable.
We’re muting our magic.
But you weren’t meant to disappear in midlife.
You were meant to rise.
To be visible. Vocal. Vibrant.
And when you stop apologizing for who you are…That’s when your brilliance returns!!
What Helped Me Reclaim My Spark
I didn’t fix it all overnight.
But I made one brave choice at a time:
I started speaking up again—even if my voice shook.
I started seeing myself—beyond the titles, the roles, the pressure.
And I started telling the truth. Even when it was messy.
That’s what brought me back. Not a new job. Not a new look. Not a new hustle.
Just the quiet courage to stop disappearing.
