Burnout Recovery and Healing
You've identified the burnout. You know which stage you're in. Now comes the hard part: actually recovering.
Most recovery advice is generic. Rest more. Meditate. Take a vacation. It doesn't work—especially for high achievers who need structured, measurable progress.
Real recovery requires a strategic approach. It has phases. It has milestones. And it works differently depending on where you are in your burnout journey.
This section gives you the actionable framework you need to rebuild your energy, clarity, and edge—without the overwhelm or false starts.
