Dr. Emma Jones speaks directly to that invisible weight we carry. She shares the hidden grief of constantly postponing our own desires to meet the needs of everyone else. And she brings a unique lens to this conversation: she’s a hospice and palliative care physician who has walked alongside women in their final years. She has witnessed their regrets, their wisdom, and the emotional cost of a lifetime of caregiving.
What surprised me most—and what I know will resonate with so many of you—is how familiar her guidance sounds: boundaries, micro-changes, avoiding deprivation, and finding meaning rather than chasing perfection. These are the same themes I see in my clients every day. We cannot talk about health or weight loss without acknowledging the deeper layers beneath the surface… and one of those layers is burnout.
But today’s conversation doesn’t frame burnout as failure. Instead, our guest helps us reimagine it as an invitation—a nudge toward small but powerful shifts, toward ease, toward purpose, toward a gentler way of being in our bodies and our lives.
If you are ready to exhale, to soften, and to find a safer place to land… stay tuned.
