Episode 152: How To Beat Burnout and Hustle Culture, and Prioritize Health, with Chloe Wilde

Burnout continues to skyrocket as we take on side hustles and chase the elusive “more” – but the good news is there are real, actionable ways to beat it and prevent it from coming back! But we’re no experts, so we called in Chloe Wilde to teach us how she overcame burnout and built a business on balance and wellness.



Raise your hand if you’ve been feeling a little overwhelmed with all of life’s responsibilities lately. Our inboxes are always full, and our social feeds are always filled with everyone’s nonstop accomplishments. We're in a perpetual juggling act between work, parenting, relationships, and our health (the latter of which usually gets bumped to the back burner).

There’s always more to do and less time to do it in. These girlies are tired. So this week we’re saying goodbye to hustle culture, getting to the bottom of all this burnout, and re-learning how to prioritize our wellbeing.

Episode 145: The Quickie: How to Ask for Help When You Need It (It's Okay To Not Be Okay!)

Life can be complicated AF and everyone needs support along the way…so why is it so hard to ask for it? For most of us, the tendency to keep things bottled in and not ask for help has been reinforced over time, especially in cultures that value independence and “success”. Spoiler alert: it isn’t doing us any good. On the plus side, vulnerability and asking for help are two skills that can be learned, and class is now in session!

Spoiler alert: it isn’t doing us any good. On the plus side, vulnerability and asking for help are two skills that can be learned, and class is now in session! 

Giving and receiving emotional support is essential for us to thrive, and it’s okay to not be okay! So this week we’re getting personal about our own struggles and share some helpful tips on how we can all channel our inner Brené Brown. 

Join us as we chat about:

  • Cailyn’s struggle with feeling disconnected and overwhelmed

  • What holds us back from admitting when we’re not ok

  • Why validation is so important

  • Going to the right person for help

  • How vulnerability strengthens connections

  • Being direct about what you need

  • Why admitting that you’re not okay isn’t a burden to others

  • Letting your friends and family show up for you

  • Emphasizing validation over problem-solving

  • How self-acceptance can free you

We hope this episode inspires you to ask for help when you need it and show up better for the people who might need you!
