Having burned out 3 times in my life, I knew this would be a deep dive and it was! She graciously agreed for me to post it on my youtube channel and included it on my own Musitations podcast since this was the third in our series of soulversations. \n\nIn McCall's words for the episode:\n\nIn this episode, Michael DeMaria and I explore the rich, complex, and paradoxical themes of burnout and renewal central to our lives as empaths, recovering codependents (over givers) and creative types.\n\nSpeaking from our personal experiences with burnout and how-not-to-burn-out, Michael and I explore: \n\nThe importance of the soul (water, earth) in tempering the creative fire and air of spirit. How to honor and be in conversation with instead of pathologizing processes of the soul that feel dark, slow, and counter to creative productivity. Learning to differentiate between the ego being fed and the soul being fed through creative purpose. How to be who we are....sustainably I also share the story of how I burned out nine years ago on fulfilling my soul purpose, what I did to recover, and how I engage with purpose differently now.\n\nYou can find out more about McCall and her wonderful work and book, \"The Other Side of The Mountain\" on her website at: https://www.mccallerickson.com/ \nor her podcast at: https://mccallerickson.buzzsprout.com/1225844\n\nTime Stamps:\n00:00 Intro\n03:50 What is Burnout?\n08:15 How the Soul Keeps Us Balanced. \n11:20 Burnout vs. Shamanic Death/Rebirth\n13:30 Inscendence vs Transcendence\n17:00 Moving from the Fear of the Darkness to Welcoming it\n15:30 Welcoming the Descents and Fallings into Soul\n22:30 Dark Nights and Going Insane\n24:50 What is Soul Sickness and What Nourishes the Soul\n25:15 The Answer is Within\n28:00 What feeds the soul?\n29:45 Discerning the Difference Between...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/9bO08m5ulrPweFxaBFMK_2RC6f66unjRQYpwqR_GZS0/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzQyODU3LzE2ODc5/MDAyNjQtYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
