In this deeply personal and insight-packed solo episode, Kristen shares a powerful reflection on what she calls “dumpster decisions”—those all-or-nothing moves we make when we’re on the brink of burnout or buried in overwhelm. Drawing from her own journey of business pivots, personal healing, and rediscovery, Kristen opens up about how she threw away more than she needed to, only to later return and reclaim what still sparked joy.She walks listeners through the difference between rage cleaning your life and intentionally evaluating what still serves your evolving self. Along the way, she delivers relatable stories, thoughtful metaphors (hello, Marie Kondo and Harry Potter’s phoenix!), and a massive announcement that longtime listeners will love.Spoiler alert: She's officially back in the weekly coaching chair—and you’re invited.<h3>What You’ll Hear in This Episode:</h3><ul><li>What “dumpster decisions” are and why we make them during burnout</li><li>How Kristen’s business and personal life were shaped by burnout recovery</li><li>The importance of honoring your evolution without shame</li><li>How your nervous system holds the key to better habits, performance, and joy</li><li>The birth of Sondera, Kristen’s newest company helping people regulate, realign, and rise</li><li>A sneak peek into the tools, coaching, and transformation waiting inside her new membership</li><li>The full-circle moment: Kristen’s return to live weekly coaching (and how you can join!)</li></ul> <h3>Key Takeaways:</h3><ul><li>Burnout doesn’t always mean burning everything down.</li><li>Regulating your nervous system is the missing link between knowing what to do and actually doing it.</li><li>Sometimes, the things you walked away from still belong with you—you just needed space to see it.</li><li>Sustainable success is rooted in self-awareness, alignment, and nervous system integration.</li></ul> <h3>Special Announcement 🎉</h3>Kristen is back in the coaching seat!
