Hello everyone. Welcome to Your SuperPowered Mind. I’m your host Kristin Maxwell, and in this show we explore the process of transformation, and give you tools and strategies that you can use to transform your own life. Today I have the pleasure of talking to Jennifer Marcenelle about cutting-edge solutions to avoid and overcome burnout. Jennifer Marcenelle is a Board Certified Holistic Registered Nurse, a Gemstone and Diamond Therapy practitioner, and now an LP coach with the specialization in holistic healing for burnout. She is the author of the book, From Burning Out to Burning Bright. As an energy medicine practitioner and the founder and CEO of Burn Bright Today, she helps people improve mental wellness and recover from burnout and other challenges. Jennifer, welcome to Your SuperPowered Mind.

Oh, thank you so much. It’s a pleasure to be here, and I’m a super fan of your work. Thank you for all that you are doing.

Thank you so much. Yes, together we’re hopefully reaching lots of people. So my first question, Jennifer, is always, what superpower did you uncover as the result of mastering your mind?

Oh, I would say, hands down, without a doubt, my new superpower is to put the soul in charge. And what I mean by that is once I mastered my mind, my memories, and my emotions, I learned through lots of practice in the school of hard knocks, how important and rewarding it is to put what I call “soul” in charge. My divinity in charge, right? My heart over my mind. And it has been absolutely life-altering.

Wow. That is beautiful. And I just want to know, of course, I want to know, how did you do that?

And am still doing it?

And still doing it, of course.
Yeah. So as you know, I had a health crisis and near suicide from burnout back when I was 44, which led me on this incredible journey of healing,responsibility, understanding, and really discovering my spirituality as well as my other aspects, my intellect, my intelligence, my skills, right? All of those going together, and through that incredible journey of health and healing to get to where I am today into what I call, “from the darkness of burning out to the light of burning bright,” I just really discovered the importance in the power of the mind. But how important and even more powerful it is to really get it in its rightful place. And its rightful place for me is second to my heart so that the wisdom of my heart, the divinity, my inner guidance can guide me every day. And then the mind can follow, and do what it does best.
It’s been a journey, and I’m still working on it, but I’ve made great strides.

That is lovely. And you know what, with, I think, a lot of the listeners of this show, and myself, and many of my clients are people whose minds are so loud and talking so much, and usually, in unhelpful loops, and really what we all yearn for is that piece of being able to tap into our soul. So I am super excited to ask you more about this, and also what burnout is, and how you capture that, and get over it. Before we do and go into everything, we’re going to take a super-quick break. Will you let people know where they can learn about you and your work before we break?

Sure. I’m across all the social media platforms, but it’s really easiest just to head on over to my website, burnbrighttoday.com. Everything is there, the company, the book, the radio show, the blogs, lots of free information, and all types of helpful information there for you. So, burnbrighttoday.com.
