Break the Burnout Cycle

The Pattern

You keep filling the well for everyone else and treating your own depletion as a problem to push through. The pattern isn't that you work hard — it's that you treat yourself as a resource rather than a person. That's not sustainable and it's not leadership.

What Mastery Looks Like

An examined relationship with work that is sustainable and meaning-bearing
