Exhaustion. Burnout. Fatigue. Somehow we don’t see it coming but we know when we’re there. That moment when we’ve come to the end of our rope, when we’ve given and poured out all that we have, all while forgetting to take care of ourselves in the process. In this interview with Danielle Wheeler, founder and creator of Velvet Ashes, we talk about being proactive to find sustainment in our lives (and not waiting until we’ve depleted ourselves before doing so!) Danielle isn’t only passionate in speaking about women finding sustainment — she puts her words into action by creating a yearly online retreat geared to meet women anywhere in the world. Listen to this episode to find out more about this year’s retreat (and how much we have in common with air plants).
