Together, they're done with the sanitized, whisper-about-it-in-private version of midlife.

What if your burnout isn't really yours?In this raw and revelatory episode, Patricia shares the story of her 2023 burnout collapse while teaching at the Grand Canyon—a breaking point that forced her to confront an uncomfortable truth: burnout wasn't just her story. It was her family's story, passed down through generations like an unwanted inheritance.This episode pulls back the curtain on how burnout becomes a generational pattern—chronic fatigue, emotional numbness, and the relentless drive to prove your worth through productivity. But here's where it gets interesting: science backs this up. Through epigenetics, we now know that our ancestors' unresolved stress and trauma literally live in our bodies, shaping our nervous systems and behavioral patterns before we're even conscious of them.If you've ever felt like you're repeating your parents' (or grandparents') exhaustion cycles, this episode is for you.Patricia doesn't just diagnose the problem—she offers a way out. You'll discover:·       How to recognize inherited burnout patterns in your own life·       Why awareness alone isn't enough (and what actually creates change)·       Practical tools for setting boundaries that honor your energy, not your lineage·       Journal prompts to help you untangle what's yours from what was handed downThis isn't about blaming previous generations. It's about choosing differently.Because when you break the cycle of inherited burnout, you're not just healing yourself—you're creating a new legacy. One where wholeness matters more than productivity. One where rest isn't rebellion, it's revolutionary.Ready to stop inheriting exhaustion and start creating something new?
