Transforming Your Internal Narrative: From Burnt Out to Bliss

One of the most heartbreaking moments I’ve observed during my coaching career, is witnessing the internal human light grow dimmer and dimmer until it eventually vanishes. I’m referring to high performing humans who once sparkled, shined, loved their lives, pursued their dreams, suddenly become weary beings devoid of all color and light.

In recent years, we’ve become infatuated with the hustle, obsessed with working hard and achieving. Myopically focused on striving for more in an exhausting attempt to prove our value to the world is what disconnects us from ourselves.

Burnout is a toxic thief poisoning the world’s best and brightest by devouring their energy, enthusiasm, and passion. It transforms these positive qualities into exhaustion, frustration, distress, and disillusionment.If left unaddressed, burnout can make it difficult for us to function in our daily lives. It’s a syndrome that results from extreme and chronic workplace stress that has not been successfully managed. A Gallup poll found that 23% of employees reported feeling burned out at work often, and workplace burnout costs $125 billion to $190 billion per year in additional healthcare spending, according to the Stanford Graduate School of Business.

If these symptoms resonate with you then this short piece could be a pivotal moment for you. In the next few minutes you’re going to discover how burnout typically shows up in our lives and how it hides behind a range of soul-zapping symptoms.You’re also going to see the dire consequences one client faced as she confronted her own burnout demons, what she did to get through it and how you can do the same.
