You started your healing journey because you wanted to feel better, right? To finally get some relief from the emotional weight you’ve been carrying for years. But somewhere along the way, healing started to feel like a second job—one you never actually clock out from.

Between the journaling, the meditations, the inner child work, the EFT tapping, the therapy sessions, and the endless cycle of self-help content, you’re exhausted. Instead of feeling lighter, it feels like you’re constantly trying to keep up. Like there’s always one more thing you should be doing. And let’s be real—sometimes it feels like you’re doing everything “right” but still not making progress.

So, if healing is supposed to be freeing…why does it feel like work?

You started your healing journey because you wanted to feel better. But now? You’re exhausted. You’ve read all the books, tried all the techniques, journaled until your hand hurts, yet, you still don’t feel “healed.” Instead, you feel burned out from healing itself.

If healing is supposed to bring relief, why does it feel like you’re running on empty? And does this mean you need to change everything or just change how you’re approaching your healing? Let’s talk about it.
