ACERCA DE ESTE EPISODIO
Your career should support your life—not consume it. When success comes at the expense of your health, relationships, and peace of mind, it's time to redefine what achievement really looks like.
In this episode of Healthy Buzz, Brandee sits down with holistic career coach Karishma Wadhwani to explore the powerful connection between career, identity, and overall well-being. After spending 15 years climbing the corporate ladder before becoming an entrepreneur, Karishma shares why hustle culture keeps so many high-achieving women stuck in burnout and how outdated beliefs around work can quietly sabotage our health.
Together, they discuss why your job title isn't your identity, how to create healthier boundaries at work and at home, and why intentional career growth should support your nervous system—not overwhelm it. Whether you're navigating burnout, considering a career pivot, searching for a new role, or simply trying to find better balance, this conversation offers a refreshing perspective on building success without sacrificing yourself.
