In this eye-opening episode, host Autumn Noble dives deep into the subtle signs of burnout—long before it explodes into full-blown overwhelm. As a practicing attorney and coach, Autumn shares the quiet truths she sees every day: that most lawyers and high achievers wait until they’re completely depleted before seeking help.

Burnout doesn’t happen overnight. It creeps in slowly—through missed meals, lost sleep, and constantly saying “yes” when your body is screaming “no.” This episode unpacks the four hidden categories of burnout symptoms and explores how our legal culture’s obsession with giving can knock us out of alignment with universal law.

Whether you’re an attorney, parent, or leader, this conversation will help you:

• Spot the warning signs of burnout before it spirals.
• Understand why “just pushing through” always backfires.
• Learn how burnout stems from energetic and emotional imbalance—not just overwork.
• Shift back into flow with simple but powerful course-correction tools.

Key Topics Covered:

• 🔥 What burnout actually looks like in its early stages
• 🧠 Four categories of burnout symptoms and how they show up
• 💫 The law of giving and receiving and how imbalance leads to depletion
• ❓ Self-reflection questions to assess your energy, time boundaries, and value
• 🛠️ Practical tools: “Enough is Enough” list, mindful check-ins, and boundary resets

In this Listener Q&A episode, we’re unpacking two common but sneaky mindset traps that show up in lawyer life: confirmation bias and self-sabotage. A listener asks, “How do I know when I’m making a smart decision versus just sabotaging myself?”—and it opens the door to a rich conversation about how fear, doubt, and our high-achieving brains can shape our choices more than we realize.

We explore how the lawyer brain is wired for overthinking and risk aversion, how perfectionism can become a cage, and how seemingly small habits like procrastination or "playing it safe" might actually be holding you back. You'll also learn a simple 3-question tool that helps you spot whether fear or values are driving your decision-making.

Plus, I share real coaching examples from women lawyers who broke through old stories and found more alignment, confidence, and momentum in their careers.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• What confirmation bias looks like in legal careers
• How self-sabotage often disguises itself as “being responsible”
• 3 questions to uncover what’s really behind your choices
• Real-world examples from my coaching practice
• How to shift your inner narrative and start collecting new evidence

✨ If this episode resonates with you, send it to a fellow lawyer or leave a review—it helps more folks find us and feel supported.

In this calming 10-minute guided meditation, you’ll be gently led into a state of clarity and openness by grounding in the breath and exploring the subtle patterns of the mind. This practice invites you to observe your thoughts with curiosity rather than judgment, allowing beliefs and assumptions to soften and float away like leaves on a stream.

Through visualizations and reflective prompts, you'll rise above rigid thinking and make space for new perspectives — asking not, “How am I right?” but “What else might be true?” With a focus on releasing confirmation bias and mental rigidity, this meditation cultivates intuitive insight and helps you reconnect with the quiet wisdom of your heart.

Whether you're feeling mentally cluttered or navigating a situation where you need fresh perspective, this episode offers a grounding and expansive pause in your day. Tune in to return to stillness, release certainty, and reawaken your inner clarity.
