Midlife Reclaimed: Midlife Burnout Support 

Midlife Reclaimed grew out of my own journey through burnout, recovery, and early midlife, and now holds space for conversations about perimenopause, mental health, and self-compassion.

I’m Shannon A. Swales, clinical psychologist, writer, and fellow midlife woman.

This show began as Burnout: A Different Kind of GAP Year, sharing my real-time burnout experience and those of brave guests. It evolved into When Burnout Becomes Reality as I returned to clinical work, bringing in professional insights on burnout and healing.

Now, as Midlife Reclaimed, we explore what it means for women in midlife to feel grounded, connected, and whole again. Each month, we share stories and wisdom on burnout, identity, mental health, self-worth, relationships, and much more.

It’s about coming home to yourself—because this chapter is yours to reclaim.
