## Resource

Burnout doesn't always announce itself. Sometimes it looks like staying busy, going numb, or just feeling nothing while you keep showing up. In today's episode, Celeste talks about the quiet version of burnout — the one that hides behind productivity and performance — and why you don't have to hit rock bottom to say "this is too much." If you've been telling yourself you're fine while running on empty, this one is for you. Today's shift: You don't have to fix anything — just name where you actually are.
