121 - The ACTUAL Phases of Burnout

There’s SO much BS out there when it comes to the phases of burnout. Let me DEBUNK these! Instead, let’s talk about how burnout progresses. I’ll introduce you to the concept of the high achiever burnout cycle, where high achievers experience burnout in a cyclical fashion. I’m also going to break down the stages of this cycle, starting with a well-intentioned busyness all the way to the burnout breakdown. We’ll talk about the importance of catching burnout early and making changes to prevent it from progressing further and where the easiest and most effective places to catch burnout and reverse it are!

Keywords burnout, stages of burnout, high achiever burnout cycle, well-intentioned busyness, overwhelm, denial, detachment, mental collapse, physical collapse, recovery, sustainable success, mindset, values Some Takeaways Burnout does not follow a linear progression and the commonly accepted stages of burnout may not accurately represent how it actually progresses. High achievers often experience burnout in a cyclical fashion, going through phases of burnout and recovery. Catching burnout early and making changes can prevent it from progressing to more severe stages. Mindset and values play a crucial role in managing burnout and preventing its recurrence. Recovering from burnout is easier the earlier it is caught, but it may take longer to recover if it has progressed to more advanced stages. Sounds Bites "I just don't agree with.
