Burnout isn’t just stress, it’s what happens when stress goes unaddressed for too long. And recovering from it isn’t something you can fast-track with a weekend off or a quick fix. Real recovery takes time, intention, and support.

In the final part of our burnout series on How to Be Happy, we dive into what it actually takes to heal from burnout; emotionally, mentally, and physically. Drawing on the 12-stage burnout model, I’ll walk you through what recovery can look like at different stages, why it often takes months (not days), and how to rebuild your energy and sense of self from the inside out.

We’ll also explore:

✅ Why burnout is often the result of neglecting yourself, your needs, and your values

✅ The role of guilt, people-pleasing, and over-identification with work in slowing down recovery

✅ How to process burnout in your body, not just your brain

✅ Tools to refill your cup and how to get the courage to leave unsustainable environments ✅ The long game: sustainable strategies to protect your energy going forward

Plus, we answer some listener questions, including: “What does burnout feel like — and how do I know if I’m in it?” and “How do I recover when I feel totally depleted?”

This one’s for you if you're healing from burnout now, or want to support someone who is.
