Recognise Burnout Before It Happens

7 signs you need to look out for as a passion driven female entrepreneur  

Hello Lovely Lady

Being a heart centered, passion driven, creative female entrepreneur, like you, means that you really love your work and what you do. Your pour your heart and soul into every aspect of your business and really thrive on the positive impact you are making for those you work with and at the same time in your own life. 

Being passionate about what you do and purposeful in the way that you do things both personally and professionally, is your driving force; and combined with your excellent entrepreneurial skills and big dreams you have for your business, brand and your life, gives you a winning formula. 

The thing with being passion and purpose driven is that most of the time you are “all in”, which is great, but if not managed well, you could be left hanging on the borderline of burnout. 

For female entrepreneurs burnout often comes in the form of passion or compassion fatigue depending on where you are off alignment; or a combination of both.

Unfortunately, you usually only realise it when it is happening, leaving you feeling completely drained and depleted impacting your creativity, ability to produce, your mindset, your enthusiasm for your work and the freedom that you are creating for yourself and your life. 

How do I know all this? This was me a few years ago… completely burnt out and suffering with both passion and compassion fatigue all at the same time. 

So today I want to share with you some of the signs to look out for, so that you can avoid burn out before it happens. 

The 7 Sign to recognise Burnout

Sign 1 

Feeling off in some way and just not sure why but try to ignore this and keep going. 

Sign 2 

Unable to maintain healthy boundaries, saying yes when you want to say no.  

Sign 3

Entertaining imposter syndrome and doubting your work; and that you, and what you offer is good enough. 

Sign 4

Constantly running out of energy to work in and on your business simultaneously.  

Sign 5

Feeling uninspired to create and produce. 

Sign 6

Not wanting to show up and avoiding putting yourself out there. 

Sign 7

Struggling to balance everything that you need to do, compromising your well-being in the process. 

The great news is that there is a solution to avoiding burnout, and there is a long terms solution to burnout too. Your first step in any journey is always understanding and awareness, so if any of these signs jumped out at you, it’s really important for you to acknowledge this and listen to yourself, so that you can take the right action steps to shift back into Alignment. 

Take a few minutes to re read the above list, making a note of which ones you resonated with, then take a few minutes to sit back and asses what’s going on and how you can get back on track.

Consistently being in and working with your full creative potential;  ensuring your ability to show up in your business, for your clients and in your life as your usual high vibe self is really where you wish to be, and it can be super easy for you when you know how to personally stay in alignment.
