Stage Intro (script format):
All right, folks, buckle up! Today’s speaker is here to talk about burnout –
and no, she’s not about to tell you to drink more water and meditate.
Cait Donovan is a no-fluff expert who brings together ancient wisdom, modern science,
and a little bit of sass to help us avoid the exhaustion trap.
Host of FRIED: The Burnout Podcast and a burnout survivor herself, Cait knows firsthand
what it takes to go from “crispy around the edges” to thriving.
She’ll be showing us how to set real boundaries, make space for the emotions we usually ignore,
and lead teams that actually like Mondays – well, most of them, anyway.
Let’s give it up for the woman who’s here to help us say goodbye to burnout and hello to a
healthier, happier workplace – Cait Donovan!
