Burnout and Work Stress

Burnout tends to creep in rather than arrive all at once — longer hours that stopped being questioned, a sense of never doing quite enough, and eventually a flatness or dread that follows you home. 

It's often tangled up with identity, the belief that your worth is tied to your output. We'll look at what's actually driving the pattern — not just workload, but the beliefs that keep you in it — and build sustainable ways to protect your time and energy. 

That's rarely about simply "working less"; it's about understanding why stopping feels so hard in the first place.
