I used to think I was healing.
Turns out, I was just really good at performing it.
I followed the advice.
Read the books.
Did the morning routines.
Ate the “right” foods.
Listened to the “experts.”
And slowly, quietly… I disappeared from myself.
This last burnout broke something deeper.
It wasn’t just exhaustion. It was disillusionment.
A kind of grief that made me see how much of my “healing” was still shaped by systems I didn’t actually trust — just obeyed.
So I stopped.
Everything.
And what I found in that stillness surprised me.
I wrote about it here — not as advice, not as a how-to, but as a reckoning.
For anyone who’s ever felt like they were doing all the “right” things and still felt lost.
Stop Fixing is now live on Bruised and Becoming.
Come sit with me in the in-between.
🖤
A slow unraveling of identity, burnout, and the quiet wisdom of doing nothing.
