Burnout: Identity, Biology and Self-Worth. The Great Misconception. #168

Burnout isn’t just stress and that’s why your "self-care" isn't working.

If you’ve tried taking a vacation, sleeping more, or clearing your inbox, but you still feel like a hollowed-out version of yourself, this episode is for you.

We’re diving into the two hidden drivers of burnout that go far beyond a heavy workload: Identity-linked pressure and Nervous System Dysregulation.

In this episode, we explore:

The Burnout Misconception: Why vacations don't work.

The Identity Trap: Why high-achievers can't "turn off."

The Biological Reality: Burnout as a nervous system shutdown.

The Signs: From "tired but wired" to emotional flattening.

The Solution: Shifting how you view your value.

Do you recognize these patterns in yourself?

Let’s talk about it in the comments.
