A gentle 8-week burnout recovery programme
The Quiet Recovery
A low-stimulation, self-guided programme for people in active burnout. For when you're functioning on the outside and feeling close to collapse on the inside.
Not just tired. Running on empty.
This isn't for a difficult patch or a busy month. It's for people who are genuinely depleted, still showing up and still delivering, while something underneath has stopped working.
Burnout isn't a character flaw. It's what happens when the demands on your nervous system consistently outpace your capacity to recover, and it rarely resolves on its own. The Quiet Recovery helps you understand what's been sustaining yours, then change it.
This might be you if
Rest doesn't feel restful, and slowing down feels almost unsafe.
You're high-functioning by day and flat or collapsed by evening.
You're carrying more than is yours to carry, and finding it hard to stop.
People think you're coping brilliantly, and you're not sure you are.
Designed to be gentle
No intensity. No pushing through.
Low-stimulation
No live sessions, no community to keep up with and no performance expectations.
One to two hours a week
Each week is some reading, some reflection and one gentle practice.
Practical, not just reflective
Every week has a practice to try in your own life, plus journal prompts to help you be honest with yourself.
How it works
Four phases over eight weeks
Each week builds on the last, moving from understanding toward action.
Weeks 1 and 2
Stabilise
Understand what burnout is doing to your body and mind, and start regulating your nervous system.
Weeks 3 and 4
Reduce
Make rest possible again, and set boundaries that ease overextension and people pleasing.
Weeks 5 and 6
Rebuild
Work on self-worth and perfectionism, and rebuild your energy in ways that last.
Weeks 7 and 8
Restructure
Rethink connection and support, then restructure how you live so recovery sticks.
By the end of eight weeks, you'll have
Stopped the cycle
You'll understand what drove your burnout, and you'll have started to interrupt it in real, practical ways.
Built a working toolkit
Regulation practices, boundary-setting skills and self-awareness tools you've actually tested in your own life.
Shifted the beliefs underneath
Meaningful work on how you relate to productivity, self-worth, rest and other people's needs.
Restructured how you live
Specific changes in place to your habits, commitments, relationships and expectations of yourself.

Questions
How much time does it take each week?
Around one to two hours: some reading, some reflection and one gentle practice. You can take longer than eight weeks if you need to.
Is it only about work burnout?
No. Burnout often comes from caregiving, relationships and life as well as work, and the programme looks at all of it.
What happens in the coaching sessions?
Four private video sessions with me, spaced across the programme. You bring what's on your mind, and we work through it together.
Can my employer pay for it?
Yes. Many people put it through a learning or wellbeing budget. If several of you would benefit, the team packs are better value.
Is this a replacement for medical support?
No. The Quiet Recovery is a coaching-based programme, not medical treatment. If you're struggling with your mental health, please speak to your GP.
