The high cost of emotional labor in a world that praises your performance but ignores your depletion.

This episode is not just for introverts. It’s for every woman who’s ever left a social interaction wondering, “Why do I feel so drained?” Mischelle opens up the truth about emotional depletion, not just as a personality trait, but as a nervous system signal. With depth, science, and soul, she speaks to both introverts and extroverts navigating the quiet fatigue of modern connection.

 What You’ll Hear:

  • The hidden toll of emotional labor in everyday moments
  • Why introverts need more than silence—they need solitude
  • Why extroverts are scared their spark is gone (and what that really means)
  • The real reason “pushing through” no longer works
  • How to recognize when your nervous system is asking for retreat
  • A full-body practice to help you recalibrate in real-time
  • A final charge to reclaim your emotional authority, without apology.

 This isn’t just a conversation. It’s restoration.
