How to Overcome Burnout: Am I actually over it?

This IBd Life (2)

Last post I wrote about how to overcome burnout and my steps to get there.

We’ve all been there, in a burnout phase. Funnily enough I wasn’t ready to really admit that it was burnout. I did write a post, but not much else. It took some work but I think I am finally on the top of the hill of this burnout phase and ready to keep on rolling.

Here are/were my goals to overcome my burnout:

  1. Start my instagram account. Here it is! Give me a follow 😉
  2. Restart my declutter calendar
  3. Write a post about the challenge

So I did 2 out of 3. I did restart my declutter challenge and it has been going really well. Less clutter less mess in my head.

(However I took no pictures. My commitment for this week is to take pictures of the 28 days to declutter challenge. It is really fun to look back and see what I am up to. )

It’s really tough being in that burnout stage, because as moms we can’t just jet off to Florida for a vacation, or let go of home duties. Our children still need us and life keeps moving forward, whether we feel up to it or not.

But I’m learning that burnout isn’t something you just snap out of. It’s a slow climb, one small step at a time. And honestly? Progress is still progress, even if it’s messy.

What Helped Me Move Forward?

  • Letting go of guilt – Burnout happens, and beating myself up over it wasn’t helping.
  • Taking action, even if it was small – Just restarting my declutter challenge gave me momentum.
  • Giving myself grace – I didn’t complete every goal, but I did something, and that’s enough.

This Week’s Focus:

📸 Document my declutter challenge – Because looking back at the progress is so motivating.
📲 Engage more on Instagram – Now that I’ve started, I want to connect with more of you!
📝 Keep writing – Even if it’s imperfect, getting my thoughts out helps.

Burnout is tough, but we don’t have to power through it alone. Have you ever been in a burnout phase? What helped you get back on track? Drop a comment—I’d love to hear your thoughts! 💛
