Spring Cleaning… but for your mind and soul.

Not everything that needs attention is visible.

If you’ve been carrying a lot lately, this is your reminder to reset—just a little.

• Breathe on purpose
• Step outside
• Put your phone on silent
• Clean one small space
• Check in with yourself
• Get support if you need it

You don’t need a full reset overnight.
Small shifts create real change.

Sometimes taking care of yourself is the most productive thing you can do.

👉 Ready for a more structured reset?
Confidential counseling and consultation available.

Even Mr. Monster knows working lunches ARE NOT lunches! Used sparingly, the concept of a working lunch can work. But if this is your norm, let’s talk about how you can build some better balance. If you’re the boss insisting on working lunches, let’s also talk about that. www.returntobaselinellc.com

Let’s be honest — stuffing it down doesn’t actually work.

A lot of people with busy, demanding lives get used to pushing through stress. Work, family, responsibilities… we tell ourselves we’ll deal with it later.

But stress doesn’t just disappear when we ignore it. It accumulates. And without time for recovery, it eventually shows up as burnout, disconnection, irritability, exhaustion, or feeling like you’ve lost your sense of purpose.

This isn’t a personal failure. It’s often a system problem.

Healthy people need healthy environments. Workplaces that normalize rest, encourage support, and recognize that wellness is part of sustainability — not a luxury.

Taking care of your mental health isn’t weakness.
It’s how we keep going.

💙 You deserve support.
💙 You deserve recovery.
💙 You don’t have to carry it alone.

Check on the strong ones.

They’re usually the ones carrying the most.

Most people who carry the most responsibility
rarely make time for themselves.

First responders.
Healthcare professionals.
Military members.
Teachers.
Leaders.
Parents holding everything together at home.

You spend your time taking care of others.

Solving problems.
Showing up when it matters most.

Deadlines.
Emergencies.
Long days.
People counting on you.

Somewhere in the middle of all that,
your own well-being can quietly move to the back burner.

But even the strongest people need time to reset.

Sometimes that means stepping back,
taking a breath,
and finding your way back to baseline.

Sometimes the strongest thing you can do
is take care of yourself too.

If this message resonates with you,
or reminds you of someone who carries a lot for others,
feel free to share it.

A big milestone for Return to Baseline, LLC. 🌳 After nearly 20 years of providing Employee Assistance Program (EAP) counseling, I’m excited to share that Return to Baseline, LLC is now part of the Lyra Health provider network. 🌳 If you work for one of these organizations—or know someone who does—feel free to share this with them. I’d be honored to help.

Lyra partners with many of the world’s leading organizations to provide confidential, high-quality mental health support to employees and their families.

Throughout my career, EAP work has been some of the most meaningful counseling I’ve had the privilege to provide—supporting people who carry demanding roles, busy lives, and significant responsibility.

Being able to continue this work through Lyra Health means expanding access to care while partnering with a platform committed to evidence-based treatment and better outcomes.

If your employer partners with Lyra, you may now be able to access counseling services through Return to Baseline, LLC.

I’m grateful for the opportunity and looking forward to the work ahead.

Helping people return to baseline—so they can keep showing up for the things that matter most.

Burnout doesn’t just affect energy—it affects how people think, decide, and solve problems at work.

I’m excited to be back presenting for the Greater Wisconsin EAPA Chapter on April 9 in Milwaukee.

I’ll be talking about Burnout Recovery in the Workplace and sharing a practical framework that combines Problem Solving Training (PST) with elements of Combat & Operational Stress Control (COSC).

The focus is on helping professionals understand how stress impacts thinking, problem-solving, and cognitive capacity—and how we can help people reset and move forward with manageable steps.

We’ll also briefly discuss neurodivergent stress responses in workplace settings and ways to support employees more effectively.

If you’re in EAP, HR, counseling, or leadership, I’d love to connect with you there. Details are in the graphic below.

Co-founder, CPT Nikki Espil, is at a military school for the next 2 weeks. 🫡 ❓What’s been your most meaningful training — professional or personal — and why did it matter to you?

For her, there’s something grounding about seeing uniforms hanging in a hotel closet. They remind her of the choice she made at age 42 to serve, and they are a quiet reminder of growth, discipline, and becoming.
