For leaders who
look fine, but know
they are not.

I help high-performing leaders spot the burnout before the board does.

THE

BURNOUT

COACH

You can't

switch off.

You feel

permanently

behind.

You're snapping

at people you

love.

You're tired

in your

bones

You keep telling people you're fine.

You're successful, but strangely joyless.

You're wondering how long you can keep this up.

If that sounds uncomfortably familiar, good.
Good that you've noticed.

YOU MIGHT BE HERE BECAUSE...

Burnout is not weakness.
Burnout is not weakness.
 

It is what happens when capable people spend too long overriding themselves.

​

Too much pressure. Too much responsibility. Too little recovery. Too much pretending.

​

Eventually the system starts sending warnings.

Most people ignore them until life forces the issue.

​

My work is to help you listen earlier.

Honest conversations

Clarity on what matters

Practical strategies.

Accountability and support.

Sleep that actually rests you.

Your judgement back.

How I help

We slow the noise down. We work out what is actually going on. We separate facts from stories.

​

We identify what's draining you, what you're tolerating, what you're avoiding, and what needs to change.

​

Then we make practical, honest decisions. Not dramatic. Not fluffy. Practical.

​

You leave with clarity, language, actions and accountability.

The question beneath the noise

When you’re overwhelmed your mind speeds up and your perspective narrows. Everything feels urgent, problems grow larger and your ability to see clearly becomes compromised.

 

My approach begins differently.

 

I use a simple, evidence informed sequence of questions designed to settle your  nervous system, so you can distinguish what is actually happening from  what it fears might happen.

 

I first experienced the power of this in the middle of the Atlantic, exhausted, hundreds of miles from land and convinced I was in real danger.

 

One carefully chosen question made me stop.

 

I took a breath. My shoulders dropped. Nothing outside me had changed, but my ability to assess it had.

 

That shift is where our work begins.

Start with one conversation - Burnout Coach
Start with one conversation

No programme to buy. 

​

No big commitment. 

​

No performative breakthrough required. 

​

Just one honest conversation. If we both think I can help, we'll talk about what support might look like. If not, you'll still leave clearer than when you arrived. 

Why me? Tim Harris - Burnout Coach. Start with one conversation
Why me?

I've led teams, made hard calls, carried too much and ignored the warning signs. I know what it's like to perform while privately falling apart. 

​

I've experienced burnout, depression, functioning alcoholism and the cost of ignoring the signals. 

​

I've also rebuilt my life and spent years helping leaders face the conversations they would rather avoid. 

​

I'll help you tell yourself the truth. Compassionately. Mostly.
