465 – Social Media Burnout? Overcome it with Kathi and Tenneil

If you’ve ever stared at your phone and said, “I’ve got nothing left to share…and I might just delete every app,” this episode was made for you. Kathi Lipp and social media cheerleader Tenneil Register peel back the curtain on social media burnout, sharing real-life slumps, perfectionism paralysis, and the constant changes that leave even seasoned content creators feeling stuck.
Listeners will discover the unmistakable signs of burnout, practical boundaries for when consuming overtakes creating, and honest conversation about finding your social media spark again (spoiler: it’s not about chasing the algorithm—it’s about connection). Learn how batching content, scheduling with purpose, and repurposing old favorites can help relieve the overwhelm and keep your community engaged without sacrificing your own joy or sanity!
Tune in for encouragement, relatability, and a roadmap back to authentic, sustainable engagement. You’ll find actionable steps, laughter, and a reminder that you’re not alone on the wild ride of social media ministry.
