Compassion Fatigue Cure: From Burnout to Radiance for Women Healers 50+

Are you a dedicated woman healer over 50 who feels trapped, exhausted, and invisible…running on empty while everyone calls you amazing?

Compassion Fatigue Cure: From Burnout to Radiance for Women Healers is the podcast for nurses, therapists, counselors, physicians, social workers, chaplains, and caregivers who are done white-knuckling their way through burnout. This isn’t another willpower-and-bubble-baths show. Here, we get to the real root: nervous system dysregulation. Because you can’t think your way out of something wired into your tissues.

This podcast is for women healers over 50 navigating burnout and compassion fatigue who want nervous-system-informed insight into exhaustion, cognitive fog, identity loss, purpose erosion, and embodied recovery so they can move from survival into clarity, stability, and restoration.

Tune in weekly to:

  • Learn nervous system regulation – the somatic, polyvagal-informed practices that calm the dysregulation underneath your exhaustion, overwhelm, and 2 AM racing heart.
  • Reframe resentment as sacred data, your nervous system’s most precise signal for where your life force is leaking, and stop pouring out with no one pouring back in.
  • Move out of the “Floating Head of Competence” and back into your body through somatic psychology and chakra psychology, reembodied, regulated, and finally present.
  • Reclaim your purpose, your passion, and your spark; and reignite a playful, purpose-led next chapter that feels like freedom and homecoming.

I’m Dr. Julie Merriman, PhD, LPC-S – founder of Dr. Julie Merriman Wellness and author of In Pursuit of Soul Joy and Are We Gonna Have Sex or What?. I help women healers over 50 move from compassion fatigue and nervous system depletion to soul-deep radiance, using somatic psychology, chakra psychology, and polyvagal theory that finally work for the body you’re living in now. With three decades of clinical experience and trauma-informed nervous system work, this is fierce, protective love with a PhD, clinical truth delivered with heart, humor, and a little Southern grit. The quiz is your first step; the deeper reset work and the restoration waiting at the ranch come when you’re ready.

 So let’s start where it counts, sweet soul. You’re not lazy. You’re not broken. And it’s not “just stress.” Take the free 60-second Somatic Signatures Quiz at juliemerrimanphd.com/quiz and get your personalized Somatic Relief Map, the specific nervous system pattern keeping you stuck in survival mode, and exactly where to begin. 

New here? Start with fan-favorite Episode 2, “Burned Out & Disconnected? A Chakra Wake-Up Call for Women Over 50.” Then come home to yourself…we rise together.

This podcast is for women healers over 50 navigating burnout and compassion fatigue who want nervous-system-informed insight into exhaustion, cognitive fog, identity loss, purpose erosion, and embodied recovery so they can move from survival into clarity, stability, and restoration.
