Are You In True Burnout? How To Tell and What To Do

You’d think that I’d be thankful that we’re finally talking about burnout in our culture; that I’d be happy that burnout has become a huge topic for self help books and Instagram influencers alike. 

After all, as a life balance and leadership coach, my number one goal is to prevent and heal burnout in high achievers. 

But, honestly, all of this talk about burnout leaves me feeling (forgive me) … burned out! 


Need a Break?

High achievers are pushing themselves until they can’t push anymore. Recognizing their breaking point, they are forced to take a break. 

This “burn it at both ends”, “drive till you drop” mentality only perpetuates burnout.

I believe we can do better. 

Learn how to give yourself a break, and you’ll have a life you don’t need a break from.

When you are asked to make a fast decision,

And every bone in your body is telling you to speed up,

Slow down and take time alone to pause And reflect.

The Secret To Being A Better Leader

The leaders who practice the pause have more clarity, broader perspectives, and better decision making abilities than those who are in constant motion.
