Okay, I want to bring this back to the example I started out with about Mara.
Mara's experience is a lot more common than what we talk about.
And I think that the reason that we don't talk about it is because it doesn't look like a problem from the outside.
It looks like purpose.
It looks like drive and it might even look like success.
but something's gone sideways.
And that's what today's episode is about.
So there's a particular version of exhaustion that I've been noticing in women that I work with.
And it doesn't neatly fit into burnout, at least not the way that we usually describe it.
Burnout usually has a recognizable shape.
You're running on empty.
Your demands are outpacing the resources that you have.
Everything feels heavy.
Rest helps.
You sleep, you recharge, you come back with a little bit more in the tank.
But there's this other thing where rest really doesn't touch it.
You can do the long weekend, the digital detox, the yoga retreat, and you can come back and you can feel essentially the same.
And the problem isn't that you're depleted.
The problem is something closer to demoralization.
And that's the feeling that no matter how much effort you're putting in, you can't close the gap between where you are and where you feel like you're supposed to be.
