Feeling the year-end pressure and seasonal blues? You're not alone.

Phyllis refuses to help me with anything on this rainy day at Doubledare HQ in Omaha, NE. 🤷‍♂️ Good thing she's cute!

Fighting burnout and seasonal depression STARTS with a few simple steps:

❌ 𝗔𝘃𝗼𝗶𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗱𝗲𝘀𝗸 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗱𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗰𝗲𝘀 𝗱𝘂𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 "𝗻𝗼𝗻-𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴" 𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘀. First, technology blurred work-hour boundaries. Now that we can respond to work emails and requests anytime from anywhere, the line between work and home has disappeared for many.

🚫 𝗦𝗮𝘆 𝗻𝗼 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱𝗲𝗱. Don't go to holiday parties you'd rather skip. Pass on projects that others can handle. Give yourself grace in this moment, and pass on "obligations" that won't matter a month from now.

⛔️ 𝗦𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗯𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗳-𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝘃𝗮𝗶𝗹𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲, whether you're already fried, burning out, or searching for an escape hatch.

🗣️ 𝗧𝗮𝗹𝗸 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝘀𝘁. Admission of feeling overwhelmed or burned out is a sign of strength. Chances are you'll find many of your peers, from the C-level to the frontline, share your same feelings.

Remember, mental health matters for the head honcho as much as it does for everyone working together within an organization.

Year-end stress and the pressure to be merry and bright are a lot to handle. Take time for yourself—you've earned it.

As a licensed mental health counselor, executive coach, fellow CEO, and serial entrepreneur, I have helped CEOs of companies in the $2-20MM revenue range manage the mental pressure of growing businesses this size.

I’ve also worked with veterans, mental health patients, and married couples.

I often find myself bringing my marriage counseling practice into my work with CEOs.

So many CEOs come to me with aspirations to continue to succeed in business, and almost all of them say, “... but I don’t want to get divorced.”

Their marriages are often in trouble, and it pours into their businesses.

All relationships require communication, compromise, and investments of time.

My time as a marriage counselor has taught me that the same goes for business.

You must find a way to communicate with current and prospective clients, stop being the only one in charge all the time, and establish yourself for the long haul.

A successful business or a thriving marriage? Good news: you can have both.

And I mean this with all due respect and sincerity: I'm uniquely qualified to help you succeed in both.

As a recovering burnout and perfectionist, I understand how easy it can be to focus on the tiniest mistakes in ourselves and others.

But whether it's an employee, co-worker, or business partner, taking a moment to recognize when others are doing good and "right" work not only boosts their confidence but also helps you let go of the need for constant "perfection."

Perfectionism drains energy and creates stress. Instead, celebrate others’ successes and notice the shift in positivity, motivation, and perspective.

High performers who believe they can do it all and want others to believe they handle anything and take on additional projects while delivering "flawless" work may strive to achieve ultimate success but often feel battered and burned out.

No one would intentionally cause their own burnout, but it's a tricky trap to escape from without the right tools.

How can we cure our burnout now that we understand we're causing it?

Today's method is one you've likely heard of before. Perhaps you've even "kinda" tried it at some point.

The Pomodoro method is one of the most practical and effective methods to break through perfectionism.

Most of my CEO and high-performing clients rebuff the idea that something so "simple" can have a significant impact, but it does.

Rewiring habits, especially those supporting the false idea you must be perfect, takes time. Stick with it. Results will come.
