Do you love social work, but still feel burnt out, overwhelmed, and stuck? In this episode, I’m sharing honestly about what it felt like to care deeply about my work as a social worker, while also feeling the weight of it in my own life, my family, and my wellbeing. I talk about why the work started to feel heavier than before, how the pressure, paperwork, and constant responsibility began following me home, and why I still felt stuck even when I knew something needed to change. I also share the self-talk that kept me pushing on for longer than I should have, what burnout really looked like for me as a social worker mum, and some of the first things that helped me start resetting. If you have been feeling emotionally drained, stretched too thin, or like you care deeply about the work but cannot keep carrying it the same way, this episode will help you feel seen. This episode is for social worker mums who feel trapped in a job they love, are struggling with burnout, and know they need a different way forward.
