This week Steven and I sat down to talk about compassion fatigue, but the conversation quickly shifted into something deeper. Steven reframes it as a misdiagnosis: what most of us are actually experiencing is caretaking fatigue, and there's a big difference. We got into where the caretaking pattern comes from, how it shows up in our work as practitioners (and in our personal lives), why common prescriptions like rest and boundary-setting often miss the root, and what it actually looks like to move from caretaking into genuine caring. If you've ever felt burnt out, resentful, or quietly exhausted by the work you love — this one's worth a listen. Thank you to everyone who joined us live. Curious what came up for you during this episode? Drop it down below and let us know. If you missed the live podcast you can tune into the replay by clicking the below video.

For those of us with deep patterns, healing might seem to take an awfully long time. We may lose patience and give up,, in which case the breath gets interrupted, or just let the mind run amok: this will never heal, it’s a lost cause, it’s hopeless, or maybe am just not healable… in this case the breath is hyper vigilant, concentrated in the upper body. But there is a half way house of rest and digest. Of a different kind of breath that is neither shutdown - hopelessness - or rampant -. hyper vigilance - it’s a connected breath of what I call infinite patience; it’s a breath that says: I’m worth the effort; I can do this; it doesn’t all have to be healed all at once. And this the trauma informed breath we need, because it allows us to titrate and pendulate, without the mind’s interference. It tells the body I may not be healed yet but I still have enough in the tank to do more later. For now, I can breath the ‘I’m ok” breath. This is our loving, compassionate inner voice breath. 🦋🦋🦋

I see myself as a complete beginner when it comes to breathwork beyond simply breathing to stay alive. It feels like a whole new world is opening up to me. So I’d truly appreciate your very best advice for someone just starting out. Please share it in the comments below. Thank you in advance 🤍
