Episode notes

Send Let’s Think About It a text Episode Summary December 2025 moved fast, and if you’re a high achiever, it probably burned you out more than you want to admit. In this episode, Coach Mo and Coach A-Mo break down how to use self-awareness as your first rep in the S.W.A.G. cycle so you don’t drag the same burnout into 2026. They unpack what it really means to “anchor yourself,” how to read your burnout in real time, and why resets are the antidote to draining your energy. From irritation and frustration at work to that inner voice that tells you to just “push through,” you’ll learn how to pause, breathe, reset, and decide on one clear non-negotiable focus for 2026. This is your call-out: stop firefighting your way through the year and start leading yourself with intention. Key Takeaways Read your burnout, don’t outrun it How to identify your “state of being” in burnout: irritation, tuning people out, internal annoyance, and the subtle ways your energy starts to crack. Reset is the antidote to draining Why real-time resets (breathing, pausing, stepping away) break the loop of burnout and inner critic chatter so they can’t coexist in the same moment.
