Let me guess:
Feeling exhausted or numb all the time?
I've been there.
For years, I worked hard and kept going long after the cost stopped being visible to others—and myself.
Most people assume workplace burnout is the result of too much stress. But in fact, burnout grows out from the emotional roles we feel forced to play at work.
Things like appearing strong despite the pressure, or staying agreeable, productive, and composed. Even when something deep down isn't feeling right.
Over time, all of that pretending disconnects leaders from themselves, their teams, and the work they once cared about. It doesn't have to be this way.
