Description
The Balanced Badass Podcast® is for high-achieving professionals who are burned out, checked out, and tired of pretending the job is fine.
Hosted by burnout and career strategist Tara Kermiet, this show helps you make sense of what's happening when the job you worked so hard for starts costing too much.
Around here, burnout isn't treated like a self-care problem. It's career data. Every episode helps you diagnose what's driving your burnout and decide what to do next. Some weeks, that means learning how to make your current job fit better. Some weeks, it means admitting the thing you've been avoiding: you may need an actual exit plan.
If you're tired of vague advice, wellness fluff, and being told to just care less, you're in the right place.
Because survival mode was never supposed to be the plan.
