SLOWRUN, A Guide for Working Moms Navigating Burnout
A self-help guide for working moms navigating burnout. Written after my own 2021 collapse. Reflective, declarative, calm. No hype.
What it is
SLOWRUN is a self-help guide for working moms navigating burnout. Its premise: burnout isn't an ending. It's a forced wake-up that reveals what was being ignored.
The structure of the book, Slow down, Listen to yourself, Open up to new experiences, Work through discomfort, Refocus your energy, Use specialists, New habits for resilience, runs on an endurance-sport metaphor. Don't stop. Move at a sustainable pace.
Four parts: recognizing the signs and the three stages of healing; understanding the inner voice and why old strategies stop working; reconnecting with your own definition of success; and the practical work of goals, perfectionism, support, and progress.
It's written for women juggling family, corporate roles, and self-realization who feel they are failing everywhere. It came out of my own burnout and the years of self-coaching that followed. It is a separate piece of work from the career advisory I do.
A separate piece of work
A different reader, a different problem.
SLOWRUN is for working moms already inside burnout, and the self-coaching it takes to recover. It came out of my own recovery after a career that didn't fit me.
My career advisory practice is a different conversation, with a different reader, about a different problem. If you arrived through the book and what you're actually facing is a career-architecture question, we can talk about that separately. If it's burnout without that layer, I'll point you to specialists who work there.
