Why Burnout Spreads Beyond Work.

The ripple effect of burnout
Burnout doesn’t stay at the office. It shows up at home, in your health, and in your relationships. Partners, friends, and family often notice changes before you do.

Energy leaks to look for:

  • Bringing irritability or detachment into family life

  • Neglecting health (poor sleep, skipped meals, no exercise)

  • Loss of interest in hobbies or social connections

Where is burnout showing up for you outside of work? With family, friends, or your health?
