The Void: When Your Authentic Self Gets Lost in the Image You Show the World

What happens when the gap between who you really are and the version of yourself you show the world becomes too wide? In this episode of Beyond Burnout, we unpack the hidden energy drain we call The Void—the exhausting gap between your Authentic Self and the Image Selves you create to navigate work, family, and social life.

You’ll learn:

• Why Image Selves are necessary (and not the enemy).

• How The Void quietly expands when you stifle emotions, ignore gut instincts, or live out of alignment with your values.

• Why an unchecked Void accelerates burnout, leaving you feeling drained, detached, and disconnected.

• Four practical, therapist-approved action steps you can use today to reconnect with your Authentic Self and start reclaiming your energy.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re performing your way through life but losing touch with who you really are, this episode will help you recognize the warning signs—and give you a plan to shrink the gap before burnout takes hold.
