For the One Who Feels Like She Does Everything: Burnout, December Brain, and the Shift Toward a Healthier Year

Episode Summary:
In this heartfelt and evidence-based episode, Juli speaks directly to the woman who carries the emotional, mental, and practical weight of the holiday season. Drawing inspiration from the new Prime Video film Oh. What. Fun. and Michelle Pfeiffer’s portrayal of Claire—the mom who tries to create the “perfect Christmas” alone—we explore what happens when women feel unseen, unsupported, and overwhelmed.

Juli breaks down the neuroscience of “December brain,” the cost of chronic over-functioning, why asking for help can still leave women disappointed, and the identity-level shift that transforms burnout into possibility. She shares the better thought that helps rewire old patterns, and she invites listeners into a new vision: a year where joy is shared, responsibility is mutual, and support is non-negotiable.

This episode is both a mirror and a roadmap—a compassionate reminder that you don’t have to earn rest, prove your worth, or carry everything alone. And if you’re ready to step into your healthiest year ever, Juli introduces The Yes Society as a space for growth, connection, and a science-backed pathway to a sustainable, joy-filled life.
