Burnout, Fatigue, and the Myth of Always Being On

What happens when your body and mind hit pause but your ambition won’t? In this vulnerable, unscripted episode, Sara O’Brien opens up about the tension between high-performing leadership and unexpected fatigue. From physical exhaustion to the internal pressure to “push through,” she shares how she’s learning to honor her natural rhythms and rewrite her relationship with productivity. Along the way, Sara reflects on a moving NPR interview with cellist Yo-Yo Ma, whose childlike, intuitive approach to creativity offers a powerful lens for leading with softness and self-trust.
