The 4 Stages of Burnout (and How to Heal) with Crystal Samuels | Catalyst of Change Ep. 27
What if burnout isn’t a personal failure—but a compass? In this grounded, hope-filled episode of Catalyst of Change, host Alexia Cito sits down with Crystal Samuels, a burnout coach and soundbath facilitator with 20+ years of meditation practice. Crystal shares the moment her body forced a reckoning (“I have to live for my daughter”), the 4 stages of burnout (prove → stress → exhaustion → collapse), and why shame and silence keep high achievers stuck.
You’ll learn Crystal’s practical framework: start with rest (nervous system first), grieve who you were, reimagine who you desire to be, set boundaries, then sustain and elevate with daily rituals. We also explore women’s 28-day rhythms versus the 9–5 grind, and how sound baths calm the body and open space for clarity.
If you’re feeling trapped by roles, metrics or momentum—you’re not broken. You’re being invited back into alignment.
