Beating

Chronic Burnout

Break the Cycle and
Regain Balance

Most booked for mental health and well-being events

Burnout is more than just exhaustion—it’s a state of physical, emotional, and mental depletion that affects performance, motivation, and overall well-being. The Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) found that 44% of U.S. employees feel burned out at work, 45% feel emotionally drained, and 51% feel "used up" at the end of the workday. In today’s fast-paced world, the constant demands of work, life, and responsibilities can leave us feeling drained and overwhelmed. Moving through burnout requires a strategic approach that prioritizes mindfulness, self-awareness and sustainable productivity habits.
