You’re Not Burnt Out. You’re Misaligned.
Most CEOs I work with don’t come to me in chaos.
They come to me quietly drained.
Still showing up.
Still performing.
Still carrying it all.
But inside?
They’re flatlining.
And for a long time, they called it burnout.
But what if it’s not burnout?
What if it’s energetic misalignment, a mismatch between the role you’re in, the presence you’re holding, and the truth of where you are now?
Burnout vs. Misalignment
Burnout is real. But it’s also overused.
Often, what gets labeled as “burnout” is really a disconnection from:
Your own values
Your own pace
Your own voice
Your own leadership frequency
You’re not exhausted because you can’t keep going.
You’re exhausted because you’ve been going in a way that doesn’t reflect who you are anymore.
How Misalignment Happens
It happens slowly:
Saying yes when your body says no
Building a business that no longer reflects your soul
Making decisions from strategy while suppressing intuition
It happens when your leadership becomes performative, when you’re so focused on outcomes that your presence starts to slip out of your own field.
And the body always lets you know:
Tension in the chest
Irritability that feels out of character
A chronic sense of disconnection, even during wins
Reclaiming Alignment
Energetic alignment isn’t mystical.
It’s strategic.
When you lead from clarity:
Decisions become faster
Culture stabilises
Your team becomes more self-led because you’ve returned to yourself
When you lead from misalignment:
You over-function
You over-give
You override your own boundaries
The shift is internal, but the impact is immediate.
This Is the Real Work
You don’t need another playbook.
You need to come home to your own presence.
