Listen in as Mardi Winder sits down with Dr. Tamara White, a counselor and coach based in Texas, for an insightful chat about stress, burnout, and how these issues can sneak up on anyone, especially during tough times like divorce. Dr. White, who’s worked with a wide variety of people over the past 25 years, talks honestly about how burnout doesn’t just happen overnight. It builds up slowly, often showing up first as sleepless nights, constant frustration, or just a general sense that everything feels harder than it should.
During their conversation, Mardi and Dr. Tamara reflect on how today’s always-on world, especially with social media, piles on the pressure and adds to that feeling of overwhelm. They share some real-life signs that you might be heading toward burnout and why it’s important to notice these signals before things get too heavy. Dr. White also points out that asking for help isn’t a weakness, whether it’s from a coach, a therapist, or another trained professional, sometimes just talking to someone who “gets it” can make all the difference.
To help listeners figure out where they stand, Dr. White offers a free Clarity Compass guide, which is designed to help people sort through their thoughts and stress levels. The episode is a gentle reminder that it’s okay to admit when you’re struggling, and that reaching out for support can be the first step to feeling better, especially when life feels overwhelming or when you’re in the midst of big changes like divorce.
