The Collector's Compass Episode #5: From Burnout To Balance In The Hobby With Dayae Kim, LMFT

In this episode of The Collector's Compass, we sit down with licensed therapist Dayae Kim for a heartfelt conversation about mental health, identity, and the emotional toll collecting can take when passion turns into pressure.

Dayae shares her clinical perspective and personal connection to the hobby, breaking down how therapy can help collectors reconnect with their values, set healthier boundaries, and navigate stress, burnout, and compulsive behaviors.

We explore topics like people-pleasing, anxiety, life transitions, and the power of defining your own path—one step, one word at a time.This episode is about more than collecting. It’s about clarity, intention, and reclaiming joy.

Subscribe, comment, and join the movement. And remember to collect with intention, not compulsion.
