225. Leading on Empty_ Why High-Capacity Women Are Quietly Burning Out

Get on the waitlist for Functional Health Coaching HERE

In this episode, I’m speaking directly to the woman who’s holding everything together on the outside… but inside, she’s feeling stretched, disconnected, and quietly exhausted.

You’re the go-to person, the dependable one, the capable leader everyone else relies on. But somewhere along the way, you’ve started feeling the weight of it all — physically, emotionally, spiritually.

Today, we’re digging into what burnout really looks like for high-capacity Christian women — especially those of us in healthcare or leadership roles. I’ll unpack how over-functioning, emotional labor, and nervous system dysregulation sneak in through the back door of our good intentions… and why they can lead to burnout even when everything looks “fine.”

I’ll also walk you through specific, practical ways to start leading from overflow instead of depletion — because you can be strong and still need support. You were never meant to carry leadership alone.

I hope this episode blesses you!

Xoxo,

Tanya
