Finding Your Way Back From Burnout with Krystal Jackson of Simply Being Wellness Counseling

Listen here.

📣 Book a Brave Boss VIP day

As a therapist and CEO, it's so easy to put yourself last — grinding through the hard seasons, disconnecting from what lights you up, and telling yourself you'll rest when things slow down. Sometimes, that thing that you’ve been putting off is actually the key to leading from a regulated place.

Today, I’m talking to Krystal Jackson of Simply Being Wellness Counseling about how to lead from a regulated place — and why desire, community, and intentional rest aren't luxuries, they're the strategy.

Tune in to hear about:

  • How working in high-stress clinical environments shaped the kind of leader and CEO Krystal became

  • What two years of feeling "slapped around" by her business taught her about infrastructure, strategy, and reconnecting to her why

  • Why she stopped comparing her journey to everyone else's

  • The role desire played in turning her practice around and getting honest about what she actually wants to build

  • How she reframed travel as a leadership tool, not a reward — and how she makes it work on a budget

  • What investing in coaching gave her that she couldn't have figured out on her own

  • The small, everyday practices that help her stay regulated on the weeks she's not going anywhere

  • Her powerful "open fist" mindset and why letting go has become her greatest growth strategy
