In this powerful and revealing episode, Baz and Loz Ash tackle the concept of recurring burnout — not as a result of workload, but as a reflection of identity. They speak directly to serial high-achievers, perfectionists, and business owners who find themselves repeatedly hitting burnout, despite trying every productivity hack, wellness trend, and recovery ritual in the book.The conversation uncovers how deeply ingrained identities — such as "the achiever", "the fixer", or "the problem solver" — create unconscious patterns that lead to physical, mental, and emotional burnout. With humour, empathy, and lived experience, Baz and Loz guide listeners through the three dimensions of burnout and how identity shifts, not surface-level self-care, are the key to lasting change.Show NotesWhy burnout isn’t about workload — it’s about who you're beingThe three recurring burnout identities: Thinker, Pusher, PleaserHow childhood conditioning fuels burnout loopsSigns of mental, physical and emotional burnoutHow to challenge identity through awareness and intentionPractical journaling questions to meet yourself againThe power of neuroplasticity to reshape behaviourFree burnout self-assessment tool (link)Audience Q&A: "What if this is just who I am?"Chapters00:00 – Welcome & Episode Overview 00:01:21 – Burnout Isn’t About Workload 00:03:16 – It’s Your Identity That’s Burnt Out 00:03:41 – Why We Burn Out: The Childhood Conditioning Link 00:06:26 – Losing Yourself in Achievement 00:09:21 – Human ‘Doings’ vs Human ‘Beings’ 00:10:14 – The Three Dimensions of Burnout 00:11:01 – Mental Burnout: The Overthinker Identity 00:14:25 – Shifting the Overthinker Identity 00:15:20 – Physical Burnout: The Pusher Identity 00:18:15 – Emotional Burnout: The Pleaser Identity 00:22:16 – Journal Prompts & Identity Reflection 00:26:08 – Listener Q&A: “But This Is Just Who I Am” 00:28:31 – Final Thoughts & Burnout Assessment CTA #rocksolidhealth #justdothedo
