In this episode of CAMP Conversations: Keys to Resilience, we explore the deeper meaning of rest, resilience, and the cost of constantly pushing through.

Kelly brings a thoughtful, reflective perspective shaped by her work as a counsellor and her deep connection to place, people, and the unknown. This conversation moves beyond surface-level burnout and into what it actually means to live in a more sustainable, human way.

In this conversation:

• Why rest is not something we earn — it’s something we need

• How burnout builds when we override our internal signals

• The pressure to always be productive and “hold it together”

• What we can learn from slower, more intentional ways of living

• Sitting with discomfort instead of avoiding it

• Reframing resilience as awareness, not endurance
