We know how it goes: You’re supposed to be helping and supporting others as they grow and improve, but inside, you’re dancing on the edge of total exhaustion and burnout.
When you get to the end of each day, you know a good night’s rest won’t be enough to beat the dread of doing it all again tomorrow.
When you see a new intake request, your stomach drops. Instead of feeling excited and aligned, you start to question whether this path is even sustainable for you.
You might be feeling the effects of compassion fatigue creep in, which brings you a sense of relief when a client doesn’t show up. As hard as it is to admit, cancelations bring you more joy than the work does these days.
You’ve spent years of your life and thousands of dollars working toward this career, and now you’re left wondering if all your efforts were even worth it.
We get it. We’ve been there. We see you.
Feeling burnt out as a therapist or coach is so common — and it’s not your fault. The culture we live in teaches us we should grind and push and pour absolutely everything into our work, even when we have nothing to give, and especially if we work in a helping role.
But it doesn’t have to be this way — you can change your relationship to your work and fall back in love with your career.
Begin this process with our brand-new free training, How to Not Burn Out as a Therapist.
Burnout doesn’t shift when we take another bubble bath or schedule one “mental health day” per month.
Burnout is an epidemic in the helping professions, but it doesn’t have to be.
When you shift your paradigm of service from sacrifice to embodiment, everything changes — fast. You’ll notice changes in your quality of life, the power of your service, and your client results.
