Welcome back to the Can’t Be Contained podcast—it’s me, Samantha Skelly, and today’s episode is a total vibe. You’re catching me just as I’m buzzing with excitement about the end-of-season snowboarding trip (seriously, Australia winters are calling my name!) and riding high on finally joining the Stanley Cup club—thank you, Chalene Johnson!
But here’s what I really want to get into with you today: burnout. Not just being tired, but that deep, soul-weary exhaustion so many of us carry. I’ve felt it too, believe me. There was a time when even sending a text message felt impossible. But I’m seeing a shift—people aren’t just accepting burnout anymore, we’re choosing change. And I’m here to cheer you on as you do the same.
I’m sharing stories from my days as a dancer and how moving my body was actually somatic healing in disguise, plus how we ALL have the power to take our pain and transmute it into life force. You are the drug—you have what you need inside you to move through suffering and ignite your spirit.
We’ll talk identity shifts, daily rituals, and I’ll guide you through a breathwork reset you can do anytime you need to shake off the numbness. Whether you’re a corporate soul wanting out, a coach, or just someone wanting to feel more alive, this episode is packed with warmth, relatability, and real tools you can use right now.
So pour whatever’s in your cup, settle in, and let’s get our energy back—together. I’m so glad you’re here.
