Burnout Isn’t Just Overwork: Spotting Hidden Patterns, Restoring Clarity & Energy with Gerald Dobin
Manage episode 517988570 series 3664680
Burnout isn’t only about workload. In this episode, coach and mindset expert Gerald Dobin breaks down the deeper mechanics behind chronic fatigue, anxiety, decision paralysis, and “performance blocks” at work. We unpack how subconscious parts create inner conflict (gas vs. brake), why micro-burnout shows up in interviews and meetings, and how to use pattern-tracking and visualization to realign quickly. If you’re leading in high-pressure environments or stuck in cycles of over-prepping and under-performing, this direct, practical conversation will help you restore focus, lower the stakes, and move with more ease without hype.
About the Guest:Gerald Dobin is a coach and mindset strategist who helps professionals resolve burnout, anxiety, and persistent performance blocks. Drawing from lived experience and years of integrative work, he guides clients to identify hidden rules running their behavior and to reprogram those parts for clarity, presence, and sustainable results.
Key Takeaways:Burnout often comes from inner conflict, not just workload—like driving with one foot on the gas and the other on the brake.
Look for cross-context patterns: if the same tension shows up at work, at home, and in your body (tight chest, chronic flare-ups), it’s likely a deeper rule running the show.
Micro-burnout appears in moments that “should” be manageable (e.g., interviews, kickoff meetings) when authenticity conflicts with expected scripts.
Start with awareness journaling: when did energy dip, what triggered it, where is it in the body, and what thought loop followed? Patterns reveal leverage points.
Treat resistant parts as loyal protectors, not enemies. They learned smart strategies for past survival that no longer fit current reality.
Use visualization to meet those parts, thank them, update their job description, and align on new rules consistent with today’s context.
In high-pressure settings, lower the perceived stakes: replace catastrophic predictions with realistic outcomes so your nervous system can stay present.
Practical reset: before meetings, name the protective part, note its fear, and install a new belief (e.g., “One imperfect answer won’t end my career; presence beats perfection”).
