    191 - Stillness Is a System Check: How Your Nervous System Reveals Burnout and Missing Systems

    Ever sit down to rest and your brain won’t shut off? Instead of calm, you get hit with a flood of reminders—emails, groceries, to-dos, Zoom links. That’s not distraction—it’s your nervous system showing you exactly where you’re missing systems. In this episode of the Burnout-Proof Podcast, burnout coach + systems strategist Ellyn Schinke kicks off a 3-part series on creating burnout-proof systems that actually support your brain, your business, and your life. What you’ll learn today: Why stillness acts like a “check-engine light” for your productivity and mental health. How to reframe racing thoughts as clues about missing systems. Real examples: meal planning, follow-ups, launch checklists, and more. A simple practice for capturing these distractions and turning them into system priorities. 👉 This is Part 1 of a 3-part mini-series on building systems that prevent burnout: Next week: Do You Have a System… or Just a Tool? Week 3: Tiny Systems, Big Shifts. 🎟️ Register now for the Solopreneur Systems Summit → coachellyn.com/summit. It’s where we’re building nervous-system-friendly systems together. Because success shouldn’t suck—and burnout isn’t the price you have to pay.

    190 - Excuses vs. Reasons: The Mindset Shift That Will Stop You From Beating Yourself Up

    How many times have you skipped a workout, shut your laptop early, or rescheduled a commitment—and immediately judged yourself for “making excuses”? Here’s the truth: not everything is an excuse. Sometimes, it’s a reason. And knowing the difference can be the thing that saves you from endless guilt and burnout. In this episode of the Burnout-Proof Podcast, I’m pulling straight from a chapter of my upcoming book to break down: The real difference between an excuse and a reason (and why it matters) Why high-achievers confuse rest or imperfection with failure Everyday examples that show you how to tell the difference How self-compassion flips the script so you stop shaming yourself and start trusting yourself Simple mindset shifts—like “I have to” → “I choose to”—that anchor you back in choice and alignment If you’re tired of beating yourself up for every no, every boundary, or every skipped task, this episode will help you finally see the truth: excuses drain you, reasons empower you. ✨ Resources + Links Mentioned in This Episode: Take the free Burnout Quiz → coachellyn.com/quiz Register for the Solopreneur Systems Summit (October) → coachellyn.com/summit Join the Sunday CEO Reset → coachellyn.com/reset Get on the waitlist for my upcoming book → coachellyn.com/book Stay Relentless, Achievers.

    189 - BONUS | The Last Single Cousin — Anticipation Anxiety, Family Scripts, and Owning Your Timeline | DATING | YOU'RE TOO PICKY

    I'm building You're Too Picky episodes into the Burnout-Proof podcast on FRIDAYS if and when I have something to say...like today! Being the last single cousin comes with its own emotional Olympics. I wanna talk about driving to a family baby shower while bracing for “you’re next” comments, why “you’ll want kids when you have them” is garbage advice, and the quiet exhaustion of anticipating judgment before it even happens. If you’ve ever felt like you’re defending your life choices—and your peace of mind—in advance, you’re not alone. I share the push-pull of liking my life, not wanting kids, still wanting partnership, and refusing to settle just to appease the family script. Consider this your reminder: different ≠ behind. Your timeline is yours. 🎧 If you’re single, I’m in the trenches with you. If you’re not, here’s insight into what your single friends are navigating.👉 DM me your story after you listen: @coachellyn What's coming up: 📅 Sunday CEO Reset - Join us for our first Sunday CEO Reset on September 8th - Click here to join >>

    188 - Top 4 Automations Every Solopreneur Should Set Up NOW (and Stop Bleeding Time)

    You’re not burned out because you’re too ambitious—you’re burned out because you’re still doing too much manually. In this episode, I break down the four automations every solopreneur (and smart professional) needs to set up now so you can buy back hours each week and protect your energy: Client Onboarding: Form → contract → invoice → welcome email → calendar…handled. No more chase-and-pray admin. Recurring Tasks & Templates: Notion buttons/templates (or your tool of choice) to one-click spin up weekly reviews, podcast workflows, content plans, and client dashboards. Email List & Nurture: A simple, values-driven welcome sequence that builds trust and warms leads—without turning you into a spam bot. Scheduling: Kill the “does Tuesday at 2 work?” loop. Let people book within your boundaries and collect payments automatically. This isn’t about being robotic—it’s about letting systems carry the mental and energetic load so you can stay in CEO mode. Ready for the glow-up?My Sunday CEO Reset is a monthly, behind-the-scenes session where I show you exactly how I reset my systems, schedule, and mindset for a new month.

    187 - When Your Nervous System Just Says “Nope” (Stress vs. Burnout)

    Ever have a day so stressful that even your proof can’t talk you down?Where your nervous system just says, “Nope. We’re done here.”Yeah… same. In this bonus episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on one of the most overwhelming, mentally scrambled, and emotionally raw days I’ve had in a long time. Not burnout—stress. Acute, relentless, compounding stress that stacked micro-stressor after micro-stressor until I spiraled. Hard. You’ll hear: The full breakdown of what happened (and what I forgot 👀) How stress hijacked my brain and body Why even evidence couldn’t convince me I was safe The moment my intuition screamed louder than the spiral—and was right What this taught me about trust, systems, and supporting my brain under pressure This is a real-time reflection, not a framework. But if you’ve ever felt like you “should be fine” and still can’t calm the chaos? This one's for you. 🎧 Listen in, and if this resonates, shoot me a DM or take the Burnout Quiz at coachellyn.com/quiz. 🧠 You’re not broken. You’re just overwhelmed. And you’re so not alone.

    185 - The REAL Reason You Can’t Unplug (And How to FINALLY Fix It)

    Let’s be real: you don’t struggle to rest just because you love working. You struggle to rest because your brain is stuck in fight-or-flight mode—and your environment is keeping you there. Every sticky note in your line of sight, every ping, every messy desktop tab? They’re all screaming, “We’re not done yet!” And your high-achiever brain believes it—so even when you try to unplug, you can’t. In this episode of The Burnout-Proof Podcast, I’m pulling back the curtain on the three layers of clutter—mental, digital, and physical—that sabotage your ability to rest. And I’m sharing the exact strategies I’ve been using to reset my environment, calm my nervous system, and finally give my brain permission to turn off at the end of the day. Here’s what we cover: 🧠 Mental Clutter: why systems matter more than willpower when your brain won’t shut up. 💻 Digital Clutter: my go-to hacks with Chrome tab groups, second brains in Notion, and automation that cuts the chaos. 🏠 Physical Clutter: clear surfaces, the one-touch rule, and how small resets = big peace. ⚡ Why your environment might be the real reason burnout keeps sneaking back in. Because here’s the truth: you cannot be burnout-proof if your environment is keeping you in survival mode. 🚀 Resources + Links ✨ Join the Workspace Reset Challenge → coachellyn.com/challenge✨ DM me CHALLENGE on Instagram → @coachellyn and I’ll send you all the details.✨ Subscribe to the podcast → coachellyn.com/podcast 🔑 Key Quote"You don’t have a rest problem—you have a clutter problem.

    If you’ve ever been told to slow down and immediately rolled your eyes—this one’s for you. Hustle isn’t the problem. It’s the source of your hustle that makes or breaks you. In this episode, I’m breaking down the difference between purpose-driven hustle (that fuels you) and pressure-driven hustle (that drains you), and how to shift your energy toward the kind of hustle that actually sustains your success. We’ll cover: Why hustle gets such a bad rap (and why it shouldn’t) The real markers of purpose-driven work vs. pressure-driven work How to spot subtle pressure-driven traps before they burn you out Three powerful filter questions that instantly shift you from reactive to intentional How purpose-driven hustle makes ambition and sustainability work together instead of against each other Plus: I’m giving you a sneak peek into a chapter from the book I’m writing, The No Bullshit Burnout Book, and sharing why this topic has been hitting close to home lately.
