Hi friend — welcome back to The Habit Within! I’m Camille Kinzler, and today’s episode is a little different — because I’m pulling back the curtain and sharing the 10 shifts that completely changed my life back in 2018.

At that time, I was burned out, overwhelmed, and living on autopilot. I was overworking, over-giving, and running on empty. What followed was a total 180 — a series of choices, both big and small, that moved me out of survival mode and into alignment.

These shifts are the foundation of why I do what I do today, and why I know change doesn’t always have to be slow. Sometimes, it’s a leap.

In this episode, I share:

  • Why I stopped doing “all the things” and gave myself permission to pause
  • The powerful question I started asking daily: What do I need right now?
  • How surrounding myself with bold, courageous people cracked me open to possibility
  • The role mentors, coaching, and NLP played in rewiring my patterns
  • Why I traded performance wellness (triathlons, hot yoga) for practices that reset my nervous system
  • How holding a clear vision, protecting my energy, and choosing myself every day shifted everything

If you’ve been hearing the whisper that something has to change, let this episode be your permission slip. You don’t have to keep pushing. You don’t have to keep burning out. One shift — big or small — can be the doorway to a whole new way of living.

Big Takeaways:

  • Burnout isn’t the end of the story — it can be the beginning of alignment.
  • You’re allowed to stop, reassess, and choose differently.
  • The shifts that change everything often begin with presence, courage, and self-trust.
