This certification isn’t another coaching qualification.
It’s the specialist pathway for coaches who want to work at a level the general coaching industry still hasn’t caught up with.
The level where clients stop breaking, start recovering, and coaching finally becomes safe.
Applications close 30 November 2026.
WHY THIS CERTIFICATION EXISTS.
Burnout today isn’t the burnout people were talking about five years ago.
Clients aren’t “stressed.”
They’re disconnected.
They’re dissociated.
They’re operating in survival mode with a smile on their face.
They’re still performing while they’re falling apart.
They’re agreeing in sessions and collapsing between them.
And the coaching industry keeps treating Burnout like:
• a scheduling problem
• a boundaries problem
• a mindset problem
• a “just slow down” problem
It’s none of those things.
Burnout is a neurological, somatic and identity-level collapse.
If you don’t know that, you will miss the signs.
If you miss the signs, you will coach straight through Burnout.
If you coach through Burnout, you will cause harm.
This certification closes that gap.
This is the standard the profession should have built years ago. They didn’t.
So I built it.
WHY I TEACH THIS WORK.
I’m not guessing, I’m not repackaging and I’m not jumping on a trend.
I’ve lived through Burnout twice.
The second time nearly killed me.
I’ve coached more than 700 leaders through Burnout and recovery.
I’ve trained hundreds of coaches from 14 countries.
I’ve spoken to thousands about Burnout, identity loss, and what actually happens in the brain and body.
And because nothing in the coaching world explained what I was seeing in real clients, I built the frameworks myself:
• The Burnout Equation: Toxicity – Sense of Self = Burnout
• The Burnout Gap: The space between the true self and the masked self
• The 4 S’s: State, Safety, Self, Strategy
These now form the foundation of Burnout-Informed coaching.
I am not teaching a watered-down wellness model, I’m defining the field and that’s why the 2026 cohort includes coaches from the UK, Europe and Dubai.
That’s why this certification exists.
And that’s why the right coaches will know they belong here.
WHO THIS CERTIFICATION IS FOR.
For coaches who already know their clients are reaching Burnout under the surface.
For coaches who can see the masking, the over-performing, the flatness, the panic hidden behind professionalism.
For coaches who refuse to push clients for goals when the nervous system is barely holding together.
For coaches who want:
• depth
• ethics
• specialism
• status
• mastery
Not tips. Not toolkits. Not “burnout awareness.”
Mastery.
WHAT YOU BECOME.
Not a coach “with Burnout training.” A Master Burnout Coach.
A specialist with:
• the clinical-level insight to recognise Burnout before the client can articulate it
• the ability to tell the difference between “uncommitted” and “in collapse”
• the skill to work with dissociation, shut-down and identity loss safely
• the depth to handle the real conversations clients avoid everywhere else
• the discernment to know when coaching tools will help and when they’ll harm
• the presence to hold clients who have forgotten who they are
• the authority to be the burnout specialist organisations trust
This is a professional identity, not an add-on.

WANT TO TALK TO ME BEFORE YOU BOOK?
OBJECTIONS, LET’S NAME THEM.
“Is this really for me?”
If you want to be a leader, not a follower, and you’re hungry for depth, mastery, and impact—yes. If you want to coast, this isn’t for you.“Is the investment worth it?”
If you want to be the expert, open doors, and change lives at the highest level, there’s no better investment. Payment plans are available—because I want this to be possible for the right people.“Will I really stand out?”
Yes. There is nothing else like this. You’ll be one of a handful of true Master Burnout Coaches in the world.
