EP 169 From Burnout to Balance: Jo Stone’s Transformational Journey

Jenny Alday Townsend

Burnout isn’t just exhaustion—it’s a wake-up call. In this powerful episode of The Stroke It Podcast, Jenny Townsend sits down with Jo Stone, a former corporate executive turned entrepreneur, to uncover her journey from burnout to empowerment. After achieving everything she thought would bring happiness—career success, financial stability, and the perfect home—Jo realized she was completely unfulfilled. She made a bold decision to blow up her life, rebuild with purpose, and redefine success on her own terms.

Now, as the founder of The Balance Institute, Jo helps ambitious women overcome burnout, break free from self-sabotaging behaviors like perfectionism, procrastination, and people-pleasing, and create a balanced life. 

If you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck in the hustle, or questioning your next step—this episode is a must-watch. Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more transformational conversations!
