Somewhere in the depths of burnout, life may become so dark that we hide our bleak reality from ourselves. As if we're personally bankrupt - our previous capable self no longer available - and we retreat in distress.
Happily, burnout is reversible, and the restoration includes your mood, performance, sociability, self-esteem, enthusiasm and all the other good qualities you've hidden in the ...

Let's explore how extreme ownership can help you bounce back from burnout and boost your leadership skills. It's so powerful to own your actions, performance and mistakes, instead of overcommitting or trying to please everyone, or passing the buck.
Understanding the pressures others face can really help with better communication and teamwork, creating a more supportive work environment. He...
Childhood gave us rules for survival that worked well then, but can be counter-productive in adulthood. At work, our unresolved childhood fears pop up at random and trigger the amygdala, freezing our adult brain. We cannot (in the moment) solve a fear that happened decades ago.
However, coaching is particularly successful in unburdening us of the childhood fears of rejection, abandonment and disappr...

Here we tackle the much-discussed (but often not implemented) basics of psychological safety. It's more than a buzzword; it's the bedrock of team stability, where belonging, confidence and innovation can flourish. 🌱 I share insight...

Happily, you can create all the safety you need inside of you - by learning to give yourself the unconditional love, approval and acceptance you've always wanted. It works! Learn what lack of safety looks like in burnout, how to smooth out your battered emot...

Burnout shuts us down big time, cramming us up inside with our negative emotions. We become automatons, plodding through our day, trying to satisfy others, forgetting about things we like to do.
What we discard on the way is our authenticity, leaving a dull empty ache. In this episode I invite you to a better place, where being you is the BEST thing to be. Burnout Recovery celebrates the you-ness...
Special guest and fellow burnout recovery coach Eugene Lee talks about how he burned out at 27yo.

I work with young men in college or recently graduated, because it's vital for them to make a strong start in their careers, through developing confi...

Belonging is a gnarly topic to raise with anyone in burnout, who is caught between wanting to be seen as a high-performer, and guiltily slinking away, feeling like a failure.
Belonging is widely misunderstood. We think it's conferred upon us by others. That's a limited view, because if we fail to offer ourselves belonging, we can't receive it when it's offered by others.
Most people can't recover from burnout alone - because what got them into burnout will not get them out.
It takes a mentor - but asking for help rarely comes naturally to those in burnout.
Worse, many find it hard to receive the goodness of such help. Imposter Syndrome and feeling unworthy get in the way, along with the burning desire they have to fix their own problems.
Let's talk...
It can be hard for a successful executive or professional with an established reputation to admit to burnout. Yet for such a person, burnout recovery requires expert help. It's a rare human indeed who can pick themselves up alone, when the bootstraps are broken.
We investigate here the pros and cons, where the best solutions come from, and what goodness lies beyond that one small act of bravery ...
If you're struggling to deal with moral outrage or moral injury at work, and it's contributing to burnout for you, here are some ways you can heal your suffering.
Don't stay in suffering, take action because you DO have some measure of control.
When we accept the status quo, and change seems impossible, there is a new way to understand our dilemma that opens doors.
Are you stuck in burnout or career growth?
Let's talk about breaking free from stuckness and overcoming burnout. The origins of stuckness lie in our self-belief and fears, and burnout symptoms prevent us seeing past them. This is the cycle of exhaustion and frustration, and the behaviors that perpetuate it, including busywork and self-doubt.
Recovery of greatness comes from acts of se...
Don't accept being stuck with an under-performing and fragile brain.
Practice these simple exercises to gain more mastery over burnout. Replace the societal focus on over-achievement with productive authenticity to tune up your human potential and results. The simple act of releasing limiting inner voices speeds up burnout recovery.
Discover how you have more power than you think over ...
Our human bodies are designed to heal, but under a constant burden of high stress, not enough sleep, poor diet, lack of exercise, less than nourishing social connections and willful self-neglect, thriving is not always possible.
At the peak of burnout, our bodies lose tone, vitality and resilience. Many new clients come to me with signs of bodily wear and tear as a result, e.g. inflammatory condition...
It can be tough(!) to pause for self-care when burnt out, but those essential pauses can be transformative. I've learned that the act of being kind to oneself is not a luxury; it's a necessity - our souls die without it. Don't they?
Do you wish people would support you more?
Are you being a bit TOO tough on yourself?
What do you think would happen if you DID practice self-kindn...
Are your feeling burned out and stuck because of learned helplessness? It can happen to anyone!
In a burnout context, Learned Helplessness can simply be an old pattern of thinking amenable to gentle self-supporting change. e.g. for me, around academic success.
Overcoming it will help you regain control of your life. Becoming curious about where and why you feel helpless can help you see thr...
