The Burnout Recovery Playbook

Let’s get a few things straight right off the bat:
❌ You don’t have to be on fire to prove you’re committed.
❌ You don’t have to be exhausted to be respected.
❌ And you damn sure don’t have to earn your rest.

This week on The Leadership Locker Room, we’re dismantling hustle culture and handing you something better: a strategy to recover (and lead) without burning yourself out in the process.

Burnout isn’t weakness.
It’s not a vibe.
It’s your nervous system screaming for a reset.

In this episode, I walk you through the 5 recovery plays that changed how I lead, live, and protect my energy:

• 🧠 Audit Your Energy | Start with data, not drama

• 🛑 Cut the Nonessential | Your calendar isn’t sacred

• 🧘‍♀️ Block the Recovery | Rest won’t happen unless you schedule it

• 🔁 Build In Systemic Rest | Make sustainability the default, not the fix

• 🧭 Come Back Aligned | Don’t return to chaos. Return with new rules.

If you’re holding it all together on the outside but falling apart inside, this is your sign:
Recovery isn’t optional. It’s leadership strategy.
And it’s time we start treating it that way.

Let’s rebuild from the inside out. You in?
