Is being grateful turning toxic? Hop over to my podcast: Compassion Fatigue Cure for the full answer

Soul Joy: Stop Burning Out, Start Living Again

If you're a brilliant healthcare professional over 50 who's exhausted from giving everything to everyone else—this channel is your lifeline.

I'm Dr. Julie, a PhD-prepared Licensed Professional Counselor, professor, author, and podcaster with 30 years in mental health, and I help counselors, therapists, social workers, nurses, and physicians break free from compassion fatigue and reclaim the joy you thought was gone forever.

You didn't burn out from working too hard. You burned out from caring too much—and that requires a completely different solution than what works for corporate professionals.

Here's what you'll get: → Science-backed strategies to regulate your nervous system so you can finally stop feeling wired and exhausted → Boundary-setting frameworks specifically for helpers who've spent careers putting others first → Weekly truth-telling about why advanced-degree professionals burn out differently (and how to recover your way) → Real talk about reclaiming your identity beyond your credentials and caregiving roles

You'll learn:
• How to stop over-functioning without guilt
• Why your "superpower" of deep empathy is actually depleting you
• The exact steps to restore your energy, passion, and purpose after decades of depletion

You've spent your life healing others. It's time to heal yourself—without abandoning everything you've built.
