0:00.0	Welcome to this episode of Motherkind with me, your host, Zoe Blaskey, and we are proudly sponsored by Stocker.
0:15.3	And this is the show that's going to give you a new toolkit to thrive in motherhood even in our world of endless expectations
0:23.3	and pressures. This week is an episode with me and I am so grateful that I get to spend the next
0:30.4	30 or so minutes with you. And today I want to talk about feeling burnt out at the end of the year.
0:39.3	And specifically what you can do if you're feeling that way and how to swerve it, how to avoid it turning into a full blown burnout.
0:47.9	And I want to be honest with you, I needed the reminders in this episode myself. I have both my girls' birthdays in December. There is
0:56.9	so much to wrap up at Motherkind. We keep this podcast going all through December, even though
1:04.0	I finish in a couple of weeks. So there is a lot of prep that goes into that. Oh, and Christmas and
1:10.2	everything that comes with that. So as I
1:12.7	sit here recording this, I don't feel burnt out, but I want to make sure that I am noticing
1:19.1	any of those little warning signs so that I can do something about it proactively. I want to

1:28.7	energy left that I don't just slump down and feel that it's done and not actually get to
1:33.6	enjoy it. So I'm going to be honest, it has benefited me so much writing this episode and I hope
1:40.1	that it benefits you just as much listening to it.
1:53.7	The countdown to Christmas is on. Now, I don't know about you, but I love a personalised gift. It is so thoughtful. And with Cricket, who are sponsoring this week's podcast, it's easy.
1:59.5	Personalised bobbles, show-stopping tables scapes and one-of-a-kind
2:03.3	gifts. Getting your craft on for Christmas is easy with cricket, the leader in smart
2:08.5	cutting and crafting technology. I love my cricket joy extra, which is ideal for both beginners
2:14.6	like me and more experienced crafters.
2:17.7	It's intuitive to use and its compact size make it an easily stored household essential
2:22.8	that you'll be using year round to create personalised and meaningful gifts.
