Know Yourself: Burnout, Boundaries & Better Conversations with Maria Redig
Know Yourself: Burnout, Boundaries & Better Conversations
with Maria Redig, Psychosomatics Therapist, Executive Coach & Communication Expert
Episode Summary:
In this episode of Boost Your Business by Business Heroes®, I sit down with Maria Redig for a real and grounded conversation about what happens inside us when we feel stuck, overwhelmed, or emotionally drained in business.
If you’re a service-based entrepreneur who often puts others first, pushes through stress, or avoids tough conversations, this is for you.
Maria shares simple tools and fresh perspectives that can help you protect your energy, understand your own patterns, and show up with more clarity in your business and life.
We talk about:
-
The Parent, Adult, Child model—how it helps you understand your own patterns, set clearer boundaries, and communicate without losing yourself
- How to recognize early signs of burnout
-
Why avoidance is more about inner fear than external pressure, and how to shift it
-
How understanding other people’s behavior through this model can help you navigate tricky dynamics without feeling small, unseen, or misunderstood
-
What it really takes to protect your energy while staying present and professional
You'll walk away with:
- A calming breathing and sound exercise you can use anytime
- A simple task quadrant to help you get clear on what matters
- A journaling habit to quiet your mind before bed
- A powerful reframe: what if that task you’re avoiding is showing you what doesn’t belong on your plate?
Try this:
After listening, take 5 minutes to reflect: What’s one conversation or habit you’ve been avoiding—and what could shift if you faced it gently?
