Burnout doesn’t always look the way you think it does. You may be showing up, getting things done, and leading your team. Underneath it all, however, you’re exhausted and have very little patience, working with a brain that won’t shut off, and the thought of handling “just one more problem” feels heavier than ever before. If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone, and you’re not broken. High-performing business owners don’t crash overnight; burnout builds slowly as you normalize the stress, push through the fatigue, and tell yourself to just get through this “busy season.” The sad fact is that most business owners don’t realize they are burned out until their energy, relationships, or health force them to pay closer attention. Join Melissa Kay and Dr. Sabrina Starling as they share how to redesign your business so it doesn’t rely on you for everything. You’ll learn how to start with awareness and evaluate where your time is going, how decisions are being made, and what you’re still holding onto that your team should own. Once you see the problem, you can change it, and you don’t have to keep running your business at the expense of your life.
