The Cost of Holding It All Together

The Current Reality:
Burnout is no longer just a personal issue, it's a systems issue.
You may be:
Quietly holding emotional weight for others
Struggling to connect human needs to business goals
Tired of being seen as the cheerleader, compliance cop, or unofficial therapist
Longing for a space to be real, without risk
