Episode 43 - What you need to know if you want to avoid burnout with Jolinda Johnson

The Awakened Pregnancy Podcast

Jolinda Johnson is a Wellness Mentor (M.S.Ed., CHHC) and Priestess who’s passionate about helping her clients break up with burnout and return to the wild: whole, healthy, and free.

As a result of working together, her clients begin living in harmony with their hormones and menstrual cycles, build trust in their bodies and their inner wisdom, and rebuild the spiritual connection they've been missing to surrender into what feels good (not just what makes sense). They then have the courage to move forward and experience vibrant health from a place of wholeness, worthiness, and wellness on their own terms.

She's originally from Detroit, Michigan but has lived in Barcelona, Spain for the last twelve years. Once upon a time she was married, but is now a single mom to a six-year-old son named Leonard (Lay-o-nard) who was sent to teach her how to live in the present and finally go with the flow.

In this episode we speak about burnout and how we can pick up on the early signs on our journey to and through motherhood.

Jolinda is wise, articulate and practiced in this work, and the way she shares brings a deep level of resonance that you I know you too will feel.
