How I Recovered from Burnout

Burnout is real.

I walked through professional burnout three times in my life between 2009 and 2017. 

There’s no badge of honor for that, and I’m not proud to admit it.⁠

If we were sitting together over coffee right now, this is the point where I’d stare directly into your bloodshot eyeballs and say, “You can make it through. You can find a way to work and live that honors you, your family, and your team. You can break patterns and embrace solitude. You can be in good health.”⁠

If I can do this, anyone can.⁠

Here's the path I took towards health:

I came face to face with my own hypocrisy, limiting beliefs, stubbornness, and lack of respect for rest.⁠

I developed an intentional approach to understanding my energy levels (why I felt drained and how to remedy that), cultivating confidence, and living with purpose according to my values.

In short, I did the work. But I did not do the work alone.

Let's talk about you for a minute.

I truly hope you aren't exhausted today, but if you are, let's lighten your load for a moment.

Dream with me by answering these coaching questions:

  • What would wellness look like for you?

  • What would the person closest to you see as a notable change?

  • Which area of your life would you feel different about?


Sitting with these questions helped me on my journey to recovery.

The biggest surprise to me? I was amazed to see that work and relationships and living a healthy life felt much, much lighter when I shifted my approach as learned through coaching.

If you’re ready to learn and apply proven approaches towards rest and recovery (and eventually experience a full life transformation), it begins with coaching.⁠

You can expect to learn about rest, the farce of work/life balance, breaking your work patterns, and more.⁠

Each session we share will be geared towards diffusing the burnout bomb that's ticking within you.

You’re in for a little empathy, some fresh perspectives, a dose or two of tough love, and a dramatic increase in hope for your future.⁠

Your coach,

Dana "if I can do this, you can too" Byers
