S3 E11 What are we modelling for our kids - why we need to act now to prevent generational burnout – The Soulie Insider
What are your kids learning from the way you work and live, balance or burnout?
In this episode of The Soulie Insider, I’m talking about something that sits right at the heart of my work and my why - breaking the cycle of generational burnout.
I share what I’ve learned from my own brushes with burnout, the subtle signs to look out for, and the wellbeing promises I keep to myself to stay steady. Together, we talk about how the way we live, work, and rest is teaching the next generation either to survive in exhaustion or thrive in confidence and wellbeing.
If you’ve ever wondered how to keep your ambition without sacrificing your health, and how to role model something different for your kids, this one is for you.
I’d love to know, what do you think your kids (or the young people around you) are learning from the way you live and work right now? Come and share with me on Instagram @gaylewilson_
