Avoiding Burnout as a Postpartum Professional

Burnout isn’t a maybe — it’s a when if you don’t build your business with sustainability at the center.

Whether you’re a sleep consultant, newborn care specialist, or parent coach, (or aspiring one!) this episode is your roadmap to doing meaningful, impactful work without burning yourself into the ground.

Marli shares real strategies and boundary-setting practices that will help you structure your business around your life (not the other way around). These are the same tools she’s taught to hundreds of postpartum professionals inside The Cradle Coach Academy — and today, she’s walking you through how to implement them, too.

Inside this episode:

  • Why postpartum professionals are uniquely vulnerable to burnout
  • How Marli rebuilt her biz after nearly burning out 3 months in
  • The #1 communication tip that changes everything
  • Sample schedules from real grads and how they honor their energy
  • Why undercharging leads to overworking — and what to do instead
  • The best client boundaries (and red flags to look out for)
  • How to leverage slower seasons and prevent “constant content mode”
  • The truth about marketing burnout — and how to avoid it
  • The exact systems to implement if you’re feeling overwhelmed
