066 - Burnout & Our Shadow Selves: Mental Health, Self-perception, Binge Eating, & Relationship Healing
Burnout. I've been there. You've probably also been there. It's sprinting without stopping, working without pausing, but does it get even deeper? In this episode, we delve into Carlo's road to burnout and the self-reflection it prompted, including difficult conversations with loved ones, embracing the season of no, and digging into past traumas that inform what got us here. From binge eating to friendship trauma to relationship tendencies and more, we chat candidly about struggles and lessons, with vulnerable personal stories, to uncover how self-awareness can lead to growth and healing — allowing mindful recovery and goal-attainment in alignment with our highest good. || This episode features Carlo Santos, full-time piano teacher and 2020 National Gold Medal recipient from the Royal Conservatory of Music.
