In this episode of the "Soul Alliance Self-Care Podcast," I had the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Tamara Beckford, a board-certified emergency medicine physician and CEO of URCaring Docs. We delved into the critical issue of burnout among high-achieving women, a topic close to my heart due to my personal experiences. Dr. Beckford opened up about her own path into self-care and personal development, highlighting how crucial these practices are for maintaining well-being. Together, we explored the phases and signs of burnout, discussing how it can creep up on you and the importance of recognizing these signs early. We emphasized the significance of self-care practices, such as mindfulness, gratitude, and structured morning routines, which can help restore balance, joy, and meaning in life. These practices have been instrumental in my own recovery and ongoing journey toward a healthier, more fulfilling life.
