Patricia reflects on her journey and her experiences with burnout. She shares valuable insights on the importance of taking breaks, recharging, and reconnecting with the physical world.

In this candid conversation, Patricia emphasizes the significance of self-awareness, listening to our intuition, and setting boundaries. She shares how her time in Italy helped her reconnect with herself, and how trusting her intuition has been vital in her personal growth. Patricia even discusses the idea of creating a "manual" for ourselves to better understand our own triggers and needs - but first, we must take the time to truly know ourselves.

Setting boundaries is an essential part of self-care, and Patricia dives into how these boundaries can help us align with our values and protect us from burnout. We also explore the importance of listening to our own inner voice and intuition, rather than relying on the advice of others. Patricia encourages us to practice self-care and set aside time for ourselves, even if it's just one day a week. 

Tune in to learn from Patricia's experiences and discover how to nurture your own self-awareness and resilience.
