Click here to watch on YouTube Burnout does not usually happen all at once. It creeps in slowly. You keep showing up, checking the boxes, hitting the goals, and doing what is expected — but something feels off. The energy is gone, the edge feels dull, and the things that once inspired you start to feel heavy. In this episode of The Brian Buffini Show, Brian shares the warning signs of burnout and explains why it is not just about being tired. He opens up about his own recent season of burnout, the cost of trying to carry too much for too long, and the changes he is making to rebuild his calendar, protect his energy, and realign his life around what matters most. You’ll learn how to recognize burnout early, create space before you break, put better guardrails in place, and turn burnout from a breaking point into a breakthrough. YOU WILL LEARN: • The three warning signs of burnout. • Why creating space is essential for recovery. • How to realign your time and energy around what matters most.
