Burnout & Breakthroughs: The High's Lows, and Healing of Working in Service Burnout & Breakthroughs: The High's Lows, and Healing of Working in Service

Burnout & Breakthroughs is a podcast for nonprofit professionals, mission-driven leaders, and purpose-fueled people who are done glorifying exhaustion and ready to reclaim their humanity. Hosted by Samantha, a nonprofit leader with over a decade of experience in underfunded programs, impossible expectations, and silent sacrifices, this show is about telling the truth — the kind we whisper in staff kitchens and cry about in therapy.

Each episode explores one of three essential themes:
🔥 Understanding Burnout — Unpacking the systemic, emotional, and cultural forces that drive exhaustion in mission-driven work.
🌱 Navigating the Breakthrough — Stories and strategies for reclaiming voice, boundaries, and worth when the system pushes you to disappear.
⚖️ Sustaining the Breakthrough & Systemic Change — Tools for building long-term resilience, equity, and impact — without losing yourself in the process.

Through solo reflections, real stories, and bold conversations, Burnout & Breakthroughs creates space to grieve what’s broken, imagine what’s possible, and rebuild in a way that honors the people doing the work, starting with you. The mission shouldn’t come at the cost of your mental health .Silence is a slow form of self-erasure. And healing isn’t separate from the work; it is the work.
