Burnout Isn't a Personality Flaw, It's a Business Risk You're Not Tracking

Your business isn't failing because of the market. It's failing because you're running on empty.

Most founders look at a slow month and blame the economy. A team that's underperforming and blame the hiring pool. A launch that flopped and blame the algorithm.The newest research on why founders actually fail points somewhere else entirely; most startup failures trace back to founder burnout and internal conflict, not the market, not the competition.

Burnout isn't a wellness issue. It's an operational risk. And it belongs on the same list as cash flow, hiring, and retention.

In this episode, leadership identity coach Shayla Wey breaks down the four signs of burnout that most leaders never recognize until it's already cost them something, and why staying the bottleneck on every decision isn't just exhausting, it's the exact failure point the research keeps identifying.

If you've been white knuckling it lately and telling yourself you'll deal with it later, this is the episode that makes you take it seriously now.
