Therapist and host, Malisa Hepner, is back again with, Ashana Kaiulani, reclamation coach, author, podcast host and speaker, as they explore the exhaustion of trying to be perfect and the freedom that comes from embracing our humanity. In this honest conversation, they discuss burnout, emotional honesty, self-compassion, and why honoring your natural rhythms can lead to deeper connection, clarity, and healing.

When you notice yourself pushing through exhaustion or judging your emotions, pause and ask: What would it look like to honor my humanity right now instead of fighting it? Give yourself permission to rest, feel, or slow down—because compassion for your imperfections is often the doorway to your deepest insight and connection.
