The 5 Burnout Patterns I Hear Most as a Coach

Six months into the season, I stopped to count what I was actually hearing. Across dozens of 1:1s, different jobs, different cities, different titles, the same five patterns kept walking in the door. So this is the episode where I name them, in the order they tend to happen to a person.We start with the work, the kind that has no off switch. Then the person above you, and the Gallup finding that 70% of whether a team thrives or burns out comes down to one manager. Then the quiet turn where you stop blaming the situation and start blaming yourself. Then the bottom, where the job stops being something you do and becomes something you are. And finally the turn, the part I didn't want to end without, because six months in I've watched it happen for real.Underneath all five is the framework I use to map this stuff with clients, the five Cs: Conditions, Culture, Convictions, Capacity, and Choices. I'll show you how each pattern is really one of them in disguise, and I've backed every section with the research, from the WHO's definition of burnout to what actually helps people climb out.Resources mentioned:Free Burnout Drivers Mini-Assessment (https://stan.store/tarakermiet)The Complete Job Crafting Menu (https://stan.store/tarakermiet/p/job-crafting-menu)Got something to say?
