On Burnout and Business Exits with Business Coach Jamie Toyne

Burnout may be an overused or misused word in the entrepreneur world. However, it’s a glaring ambulance siren that needs to be paid attention to.

When someone is risking burnout in what they’re doing, they need to know what to do and how to process it right. Trust me– I’m a serial entrepreneur, and while I do love the hustle, I’ve burnt out too many times which led me to lead a softer, more spacious life right now. The secret? The right knowledge, the right tools, and of course, high level outsourcing.

Outside outsourcing (my expertise), I sit with another expert in business growth and burnouts.

After researching the connection between 'ADHD', 'Burnout' and 'Flow' Jamie developed a coaching program called 'Flowjo' which helps ADHD founders to cure burnout, harness their ADHD superpowers, and start flowing towards their goals. Jamie was diagnosed with ADHD as a child and has burnt out three times in his career - once as a professional tennis player, and twice as a business owner. He has used this experience as fuel to pursue his passion in solving one of entrepreneurs’ biggest challenges: burnout.

Jamie Toyne is also the Author of the 'Pressure Gauge Mindset' and Founder of two other companies called Dealflow and Exitplanr, that helped more than 400 entrepreneurs successfully exit their business.

In his 13+ years of coaching business owners, he has clarified a lot of things for me in this podcast. Check out some highlights….

• How you know if the “juice is worth the squeeze” and if you’re working towards a goal without burnout
• What is burnout, really? And how can we avoid it?
• A deep discussion on the STATE OF FLOW, and what can we do to find this and exercise it more often in our lives
• Important factors that lead to business exits (we reveal 6/7 in this podcast episode!)
• Myths and surprising facts about burnout that not a lot of entrepreneurs know
• Of ADHD and how most entrepreneurs navigate this diagnosis while running and growing businesses

This podcast episode was such an eye opener for me. Even though I would consider myself an expert in delegation, outsourcing, and leadership, there were still blind spots for me in terms of fully understanding burnout and flow.

For Jamie, thank you for sitting with me and fleshing this out.

For our listeners, I highly encourage you to check out Jamie’s FREE DIAGNOSTIC TOOL: Flowjo.
