In this episode of The Vibe With Ky Podcast, autistic burnout takes center stage as Patrick Casale shares how his own success nearly broke him.
This one is for you if you built a life that looks great on paper but leaves you running on empty every single day.
Patrick Casale is an AuDHD therapist, business coach, and podcast host who built a career of international retreats, coaching programs, and a group practice before he ever found out he was autistic. He has helped hundreds of thousands of mental health professionals grow their businesses, and he speaks openly about what that pace cost him, including the chronic illnesses that eventually put him in the hospital.
We talk about why tying your worth to your output is a biological setup for burnout, not a character flaw, and what it actually takes to build a life you can live in. If you have ever felt like the harder you push, the worse you feel, this conversation puts a name to why.
- Learn why autistic burnout is a nervous system and biology issue, not a willpower problem
- Hear how undiagnosed ADHD can feed addictive patterns like gambling long before a diagnosis
- Understand the grief and relief that come with a late autism discovery
- Get a real framework for boundaries that protect your mental and physical health
