Burnout isn’t only about long hours—it’s about the inner resistance that quietly exhausts high performers.

Burnout isn’t only about long hours—it’s about the inner resistance that quietly exhausts high performers. In this Healthy Mind, Healthy Life episode, coach and engineer-turned-entrepreneur Gerald Dobin breaks down how subconscious “pusher” patterns, boundary struggles, and identity-level misalignment create constant energy leaks. We explore practical ways to spot when the problem is internal vs. systemic, why willpower collapses over time, and how to rebuild confidence by operating from a different state—one that’s grounded, authoritative, and sustainable. If vacations aren’t fixing your fatigue, this conversation reframes burnout as a signal to realign, not a verdict to grind harder.
About the guest :
Gerald Dobin is a coach who helps high-performing professionals dissolve burnout by addressing the inner drivers—misaligned identities, unhelpful parts, and boundary resistance. Drawing on engineering rigor, entrepreneurship, and deep personal work, he guides clients to shift state and identity, restore energy, and lead from grounded authority.
Key takeaways:
-
Burnout often comes from inner resistance (perfectionism, self-doubt, boundary friction), not just workload—creating constant, invisible energy drain.
-
A quick self-check: if peers in the same role aren’t as depleted, your root cause may be internal rather than purely systemic.
-
Vacations and rest provide relief but don’t fix identity-level misalignment; the drain returns when the same “pusher” part takes over.
-
Watch for resentment, disproportionate anxiety, and chronic exhaustion that feel bigger than the situation warrants—signals the trigger is internal.
-
Willpower is finite. Relying on it long-term tightens the knot; pushing harder eventually collapses energy and motivation.
-
Sustainable change comes from operating from a different identity/state—anchored through body posture, movement, and clear leadership intent.
-
“Parts” work can help: negotiate with the inner pusher and install a capable leader-part that sets boundaries and owns the room.
-
Treat burnout as a signal to realign: examine expectations, renegotiate with inner parts, and address energy leaks at the source.
-
Improvements at work often ripple into personal life—upgrading relationships, awareness, and choices.
-
First step: visualize the part that’s exhausted or anxious, get specific, acknowledge it, and ask what it needs—clarity follows.
