burnout on repeat, hobbies, doomscrolling and a 2026 reset

If you've ever thought:

“My calendar says I’m doing everything right… so why do I still feel exhausted?”

This episode is for you.

(Baby, I'm baaaack)

So you’ve ditched the 5am alarms, found your boundaries, lit your candle - but you're still oh, so very tired.

Same.

After another round of burnout (and a side of glandular fever to top it off), I finally realised something about the way I’d been “managing” myself.

In this episode:

  • My repeat burnout cycles and why soft productivity might not be the hustle antidote we think it is

  • why your screen time doesn't really matter - it's what you're not doing while you're scrolling that does

  • how hobbies, chaos, and aliveness became my new 'productivity' system
