Healing from hustle and redefining enough
High-achievers and people-pleasers, this one’s for you.
In this no b.s. conversation, Hannah sits down with her sister, Becca O’Donovan, to unpack the hidden costs of hustle culture and what it really takes to heal from burnout. Becca shares her lived experience as a high-performing Type A professional whose nervous system collapse forced her to question everything she thought made her “successful.” And how she is breaking cycles of burnout and leaning into recovery, in real time.
Together, they explore how overachievement becomes a survival strategy, how chronic stress dysregulates our nervous system, and why true burnout recovery demands more than bubble baths and weekends off. This episode is packed with insights on somatic healing, redefining worth beyond productivity, and building nervous system-safe routines that support sustainable success.
Whether you're already deep in burnout recovery or feeling the early signs of overwork and overwhelm, this episode will help you slow down, listen to your body, and begin to rebuild your energy, on your terms.
