Still getting it done.
From the outside, everything looks fine.
But you are exhausted by succeeding.
High-functioning burnout is the specific and
underdiagnosed condition of people who are too
capable to stop, too responsible to let things fall,
and too committed to their self-concept as someone
who handles things to acknowledge that they are
not handling this.
It is burnout without the visible collapse.
Burnout that maintains performance while the person
behind the performance is quietly depleting.
This book is for you -- before the collapse that
is coming if the trajectory does not change.
Inside this book you will find:
- The neuroscience of burnout -- what chronic stress
actually does to the brain, the HPA axis, and the
autonomic nervous system
- Why high achievers are specifically vulnerable and
how the traits that drive success drive burnout
- A self-assessment to identify your specific burnout
pattern and where your depletion is concentrated
- The permission problem -- why you cannot stop and
the specific strategies to begin recovery anyway
- How to set limits that actually hold in
high-demand professional environments
- Evidence-based recovery protocols including sleep,
nature exposure, and meaningful activity
- How burnout damages relationships and what to do
- The values audit that reveals why the life you
have built is costing more than it is worth
- The performance-recovery periodization model for
sustainable high performance
- A personalized 3-phase burnout exit strategy with
realistic timelines
The burnout is not the enemy. It is the signal.
This book shows you how to read it and
what to do next.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
