You can be doing everything right on paper and still feel like you’ve got nothing left in the tank. I’ve definitely had those weeks myself.

You’re seeing clients, keeping everything ticking along, showing up every day… and then by the end of the week your brain feels foggy, your patience is thinner, and even the small decisions start to feel harder than they should.

This episode builds on last week’s chat about boundaries, and I dive into capacity, what it actually looks like in real life, how it shifts across different stages of life and business, and why it’s not just about time, but mental and emotional load as well.

Come and have a listen to the full episode of Mentoring with Geraldine. It might just change how you think about your workload, your energy, and what’s realistically sustainable.

What if the very thing that makes you a caring practitioner is also the thing quietly draining your energy?

Many of us want to help, so we listen deeply, give generously, and go the extra mile. But over time, that care can turn into overgiving. Extra time, extra messages, and carrying more responsibility than is ours to hold.

In this episode, I explore the tension between being supportive and becoming overextended. I share why clear boundaries are not harsh, how structure reduces anxiety, and how simple systems can feel kinder for both you and your clients. When expectations are clear, everyone feels more supported.

Follow the podcast for weekly support, and if it sparked something for you, I would love you to leave a review. It helps more practitioners find this work and feel supported in what they do.

How did your January actually go for you? Not how you hoped it would go, but how it really felt in your practice.

Busy, slow, grounding, overwhelming, inspiring, or a bit all over the place?

In this episode, I’m talking about something we don’t often pause long enough to look at. The difference between running a business and being in practice. They’re not the same thing, even though we usually treat them like they are.

We talk about scope, boundaries, and confidence. About why being a generalist can quietly drain you, and how getting clearer on what you really want to treat makes your clinical confidence grow without you forcing it.

Have a listen to the full Bite Size Podcast episode and spend a little time reconnecting with your practice. And if someone else pops into your mind while you’re reading this, send it their way. We’re better at this when we don’t do it alone.
