Episode 6, Burnout – Mimmo’s Lived Experience
In this episode, Bella talks to Miranda, a close high-school friend, about Mim’s experience with burnout and her recovery from it. Bella and Mim chat about the bizarre moment they each discovered that their lives had “imploded” at the very same moment. Mim discusses how her brain quite literally went into “safe mode” and she could no longer do basic things like send a text, how she recovered slowly but surely over 2-years and how one day she woke up and thought “I’m back!”. Finally Bella and Mim reflect on how these life-implosion-moments can lead to a more purposeful and resonant life on the others side.
