Description

In this deeply reflective episode from the HCN archives, we speak with holistic health coach Francesca Bleckner about the invisible foundations of wellbeing in an age of burnout, disconnection, and digital overload. Drawing on her decades-long journey through fitness, fatigue, and transformation, Francesca shares how breathwork, spirituality, and a return to simplicity can unlock vitality and presence in even the busiest lives. For social changemakers, activists, and anyone seeking to show up more powerfully for others without sacrificing themselves—this conversation is an essential reset. From redefining health to decoding the early warning signs of burnout, this is about healing at the roots, not just managing the symptoms.
