Burnout is often treated like a personal failure but what if it's actually a signal that something deeper is out of alignment?

In this episode of the Journey to Launch Podcast, I'm joined by executive coach and organizational change strategist Dr. Kerri Ann Peart for a powerful conversation about burnout, boundaries, identity, and what it really takes to grow into higher levels of financial success without sacrificing your well-being.

We talk about how burnout actually shows up in high-achieving women, how perimenopause and work stress can overlap, and why earning more money isn't just about doing more, it's about becoming the person who can sustainably hold more.

In This Episode, Kerriann Shares:

Burnout isn't a personal failure it's often a sign that your work, identity, or values are out of alignment
You can't out-earn burnout; if you don't do the inner work, it follows you from job to job and even into entrepreneurship
Financial growth requires expanding your capacity and competency, not just working harder or longer
Boundaries, self-respect, and who you're being day-to-day determine how much money and responsibility you can sustainably hold
