    Jo Stone: Breaking Free From Burnout

    In this compelling episode of Women Who Work From Home, host Michelle Rivera sits down with Jo, a former executive who shares her raw journey from corporate burnout to discovering authentic work-life alignment. After checking all the traditional success boxes—executive role, beautiful home, family life—Jo found herself in the hospital, mistaking burnout for an autoimmune disease.
