This is the burnout nobody talks about.

Not the dramatic breakdown.
Not the “can’t get out of bed” phase.

The one where you’re still functioning.
Still showing up.
Still reliable.

But joy doesn’t land the same.
Patience is thinner.
Rest doesn’t recharge you.

And because you’ve handled worse in your life

you minimise it.

You tell yourself
“I’ve been through harder than this.”

Yes. You have.
That’s exactly why your body is tired.

If this feels familiar, you don’t need more discipline.
You need regulation.

Comment “quiet burnout” if this is you.
Or just save this for the day you realise you’re not actually fine.

Emotional burnout is sneaky. You might feel “fine” on the outside, but inside your nervous system is constantly on.

These patterns, chasing approval, overthinking, self-sabotage - are hidden drivers of emotional exhaustion.

Comment SHIFT if you’re ready to break the cycle đŸ€

Emotional burnout isn’t always about doing too much.

Sometimes it’s about holding too much.

Chasing validation.
Overthinking every interaction.
Carrying emotional responsibility that wasn’t yours.

I know because I lived it.
For years I thought I was just tired, unmotivated, too sensitive.

I wasn’t.

I was emotionally overloaded.

This is how emotional burnout quietly forms.

The good news?

It can be rewired.

Think you rested this weekend?

Chances are
 you didn’t. True rest isn’t just lying on the sofa or scrolling your phone, it’s actually recalibrating your mind and body so you can hit Monday energized instead of drained.

💡 Even 20 minutes of intentional “zero thinking” time works. Nap, meditate, or just stare at the sky.

If your weekends feel like this every week, it’s time to stop running on empty.

Want to actually feel rested and ready every week? DM me “REST” and I’ll show you how busy professionals finally recharge without slowing down.

No matter what life throws at me - deadlines, drama, burnout, or just plain chaos, I’m still here. And honestly? That deserves a little celebration. đŸ„ł

Take a moment today to acknowledge yourself. Every step, every small win, every “just getting through the day” moment
 it counts.

Keep going. Keep showing up. And don’t forget to give yourself credit.

✹ Follow me for more real-life mindset motivation, reminders, and little celebrations along the way!

Growing up, all I wanted was to fit in.
To be accepted for me.

Not the strong one.
Not the fixer.
Not the dependable one.

Just
 me.

I was bullied through school.
Too tall.
Too big.
Too different.

Last picked for teams.
Not invited to parties.
Not chosen.

So I learnt early that blending in was safer.
If I stayed small, I couldn’t be judged.

Even as an adult, when I lost a significant amount of weight, I panicked.
6ft1 and a size 8
 you’re going to stand out.
You’re going to be seen.

And being seen used to feel dangerous.

For years I was told
“Don’t rock the boat.”
“Don’t make a fuss.”
“Keep the peace.”

So I did.

Until I realised something.
We’re not born to shrink.
We’re not here to disappear.
We are literally wired to have a voice.

Now?
I don’t want to fit in.

I want to be fully expressed.
Fully seen.
Fully me.

And if you’ve spent your life trying to melt into the background


Maybe it’s time you took up space too đŸ€

If thisssage me the word SEEN.

Let’s talk about what’s really keeping you small.

You know that quiet kind of burnout
 the one that doesn’t look dramatic on the outside but feels heavy in your chest every single day?

That’s emotional burnout.

It’s what happens when you’ve carried everything alone for far too long and your body never got the memo that it’s allowed to stop bracing.

You’re not “too much.” You’re not “dramatic.” You’re not “broken.”

You’re exhausted from being the strong one for far too long.

And emotional burnout doesn’t show up as one big collapse. It creeps in through the small things — the snapping, the numbness, the guilt, the driveway moments.

Your nervous system isn’t failing. It’s protecting you.

But it doesn’t have to stay this way.

Comment RESET and I’ll send you the link to join my email list where I share weekly support for women navigating emotional burnout.

Lately people keep asking me

How do you hold down a corporate role
Build your coaching business
And still have a life?

Honestly


Coaching isn’t work to me.

When I stand in those rooms and talk about the transformational framework I teach, about the breaking point that changed everything for me


Something shifts.

Even a senior stakeholder in my corporate world said to me recently
“Your voice changes when you talk about coaching.”

And they’re right.

Because it’s not draining.
It gives me energy.

I know what it feels like to be exhausted, running on empty, stuck at rock bottom.
That chapter taught me something powerful.

When you’re aligned with what you’re building

It doesn’t feel like work.

Seeing clients walk in anxious, nervous, doubting themselves

Then watching them leave clearer, lighter, reaching for things they never thought possible.

That fills my cup.

And here’s the part people don’t expect

Transformation doesn’t take as long as you think when you actually do the work.

This is what it looks like when you stop surviving
And start building something that energises you.

Message me “SHIFT” if you’re ready to explore your next level.

1. You’re always “on.”
Even when you’re sat down. Even when nothing’s wrong.
Your brain is scanning. Planning. Preparing.

2. You snap
 then feel guilty.
You care deeply.
But lately you’re either irritated or completely checked out.

3. You forget things.
Walk into a room and blank.
Read a message three times.
Simple tasks feel weirdly heavy.

4. You’re exhausted
 but can’t switch off.
Tired body. Wired mind.
Sleep isn’t restful anymore.

5. Everything feels louder.
Noise. Bright lights. Busy places.
Your system feels thin.

6. Your body is tight all the time.
Jaw clenched. Shoulders up. Headaches.
You don’t even notice you’re bracing.

7. Small decisions overwhelm you.
“What’s for dinner?” feels like a board meeting.

8. You look like you’re coping.
You’re functioning.
Working. Showing up. Smiling.
But inside you’re running on fumes.

This isn’t you being dramatic.
It’s not you being “too sensitive.”

It’s a nervous system that’s been in survival for too long.
And high-functioning burnout is sneaky.
You don’t crash.
You just slowly disconnect from yourself.

If you read this and thought
 “oh.”
That’s your sign.

Comment RESET or DM me and let’s talk about getting you back to feeling like you again.

You don’t have to keep being the strong one all the time

Recognise this feeling? 😅

Used to be me every single week. Burnout had me surviving, not living.

There is a way to get off that hamster wheel without waiting for Friday. ✹

On the outside, you’re managing.

Work gets done.
People rely on you.
You’re capable. You always have been.

But inside?

You’re tired in a way sleep doesn’t fix.
Your head is noisy.
You think about everything twice.
You put pressure on yourself no one else even sees.
You tell yourself you should be able to handle it better than this.

That’s not weakness.
And it’s not because you’re not trying hard enough.

It’s old survival patterns still running in the background.
I’m Hazel, founder of clearmindwithhazel

I work 1:1 with people who are done just coping.

We gently untangle the patterns behind the burnout, the overthinking, the self-doubt.
We shift the way your mind responds so life doesn’t feel like a constant internal battle.

This isn’t about becoming someone else.
It’s about feeling like yourself again.
Calm. Clear. In control.

If you want to know how the 1:1 work looks, message me and I’ll talk you through it.
