Most mental health podcasts speak at you - offering clinical frameworks from a distance. This show speaks from experience. Katrin Aslani is a registered psychotherapist who spent 16 years inside the corporate pressure cooker before becoming the person who helps others survive it. She doesn’t just understand burnout, ADHD, and chronic stress academically - she navigated them personally, then trained to treat them professionally. Using integrative, somatic, and mind-body approaches, this podcast bridges the gap between what therapy teaches and what real working life demands - practical nervous system tools for Ottawa residents and professionals who are tired of being told to “just breath”

    S1 Ep1 Burnout Is Not A Personality Trait

    Your body doesn’t “randomly” fall apart after years of pushing. It sends signals, and when we ignore them long enough, it eventually pulls the plug. We’re telling the most personal origin story behind Clear Path Psychotherapy: how a high-performing career, chronic endometriosis pain, and years of people pleasing quietly stacked up until burnout stopped being a word and became a full shutdown. We talk about the kind of burnout that still looks functional from the outside: emails answered, dinners made, appointments remembered, all while brain fog, anxiety, irritability, and exhaustion get normalized as “just life.” When COVID hit, the cracks widened, and the cost showed up in a way we couldn’t outwork. From there, we walk through what actually helped: therapy as a real ally, the leap back to school at 38, and the unexpected clarity of discovering ADHD after burnout. We connect the dots between ADHD in women, hormones across perimenopause and menopause, chronic pain and inflammation, and why healing has to include both mind and body. You’ll hear why an integrative approach matters, including nervous system regulation, polyvagal theory and the vagus nerve, plus supportive care like nutrition, physiotherapy, osteopathy, and other collaborative health supports alongside psychotherapy and, when appropriate, medication. If you’ve been asking “What’s wrong with me?”, come listen for a different question: “What happened to me, and what do I need now?” Subscribe to Clear Path Podcast, share this episode with someone who’s white-knuckling life, and leave a review so more people can find a sustainable way forward.
