You’re Not Tired, You’re Burned Out: How to Catch It Before It Wrecks Everything
TL;DR:
Burnout isn’t a flare-up—it’s a slow leak. This episode is about how to plug the hole before it empties your life.
Sleep-deprived? Running on fumes? Feeling oddly numb to the things you used to love?
Yeah, that might not be “just a season.” It might be burnout knocking. Let’s not wait until the whole house catches fire.
Episode Summary:
In this episode of The Quiet Part, Mark sits down with resilience coach and burnout prevention expert Michelle E. Dickinson to unpack the truth about burnout—and why most of us don’t see it coming until we’ve hit the wall. Michelle shares her own journey, practical micro-habits that actually work, and how business owners and parents can stay ahead of the crash. From sleep scores and stress inventories to the “itty bitty shitty committee” in your head, this conversation is a full-body exhale for high achievers carrying too much for too long. If you’re tired and trying to push through it, this is your sign to pause and reset.
