What happens when you’re holding it all together… but quietly falling apart?
In this episode, I sit down with Suri Robinson, founder of After The Burn Co, to talk about burnout in a way most people don’t.
Not just exhaustion, but disconnection.
Not just doing too much, but being too far removed from your own truth.
We get into what high-functioning unraveling actually feels like, how emotional neglect shows up in adulthood, and what it really takes to rebuild without performing your way through life.
If you’ve ever looked fine on the outside… and felt anything but on the inside… this conversation is for you.
Suri Robinson brings a rare and powerful perspective to the conversation around burnout and healing.
With a background as a Master of Social Work and trained therapist, Suri understands mental health from a clinical lens. But her story did not stay in theory. It became deeply personal.
After reaching a breaking point in her own life, Suri stepped out of the role of provider and into the role of patient, seeking care within a treatment facility and beginning the difficult work of confronting what was no longer sustainable.
What followed was not a quick reset, but a full year of intentional healing. A process that required time, distance, and the willingness to step away from the very patterns, environments, and expectations that made it impossible to truly recover.
Today, through After The Burn Co, Suri uses both her professional training and lived experience to help others recognize burnout, understand their nervous systems, and reconnect with themselves in a more honest and sustainable way.
Her work is not about quick fixes. It is about awareness, accountability, and the long-term process of healing in real life. Follow @aftertheburnco on Instagram.
