About This Episode

In this conversation, Karenna Soto, a trauma-informed somatic practitioner, discusses the concept of burnout as a reflection of one's internal state rather than just a symptom of exhaustion. She emphasizes the importance of recognizing personal capacity, the need for self-care, and the role of somatic practices in managing energy and emotions. Karenna shares her personal journey through burnout, the signs to watch for, and practical strategies for recharging energy through capacity givers, grounding, and breathwork. The discussion highlights the significance of emotional expression and the connection between the body and mind in achieving well-being and success in entrepreneurship.  Takeaways  • Burnout is an invitation to explore personal growth.  • Recognizing where we leave parts of ourselves behind is crucial.  • Capacity is not just about time; it's about emotional and physical energy.  • Self-care is foundational to sustaining a business.  • Grounding connects us to the earth and replenishes energy.  • Nutrition and community are vital capacity givers.  • Breathwork can help release stuck energy and emotions.  • Somatic practices deepen the mind-body connection.  • Emotional expression prevents burnout from building up.  • Living in alignment with circadian rhythms enhances well-being.  Visit www.karennasoto.com to learn more about burnout prevention with Karenna.
