The Burnout-INformed coach
Coaching is no longer safe without Burnout awareness.
If you work with people under sustained pressure, you already know this.
Sessions stall. Progress collapses. Clients comply without capacity.
This is not a reflection of your competence.
It reflects an industry that has not evolved at the same pace as the reality your clients are living in.
Burnout-Informed Coaching exists to close that gap.
It sets the professional standard for coaching in a world where Burnout is no longer the exception.
If you coach high performers, leaders or overwhelmed professionals - this is about you.
You already feel it.
Sessions that stall for no obvious reason.
Clients who “do the work” but don’t move.
Progress that collapses between sessions.
Clients who disappear instead of disengaging openly.
That’s not a motivation problem.
It’s not a mindset problem.
It’s not a questioning problem.
It’s a Burnout recognition problem.
Until you can reliably recognise Burnout, everything you do as a coach is built on guesswork.
Burnout-Informed is not an add-on.
It’s the line between ethical and unethical coaching.
Burnout is not “too much stress.”
It is a neurobiological and psychological response to chronic overwhelm.
Which means:
When Burnout is present, traditional coaching tools stop working.
Goal setting fails.
Mindset work misfires.
Performance frameworks collapse.
Not because they’re wrong - but because the nervous system can no longer use them.
Burnout-Informed Coaching teaches you to see when:
– your client cannot access what you’re asking
– you’re pushing capacity that no longer exists
– coaching is reinforcing survival instead of supporting recovery
– the problem you’re working on isn’t the real problem at all
This is what separates helpful coaching from harmful coaching.
This training is for coaches who:
– work with clients under pressure
– care about safety, ethics and long-term impact
– have felt their tools stop working and want to know why
– don’t want to accidentally do harm
– are ready to coach burnout with competence, not hope
This is not for:
– surface-level wellbeing add-ons
– lifestyle coaching only
– people collecting certificates without changing how they coach
This is who this is for
- and who it isn’t.
.
This training brings your coaching up to the level required to work safely and effectively when Burnout is present.
After this training, you will be able to:
• Reliably recognise Burnout in your clients
• Distinguish Burnout from stress, trauma, depression and disengagement
• Identify when coaching is no longer appropriate and understand why
• Adapt your approach in real time to match nervous system state
• Work with clients at burnout without reinforcing survival or collapse.
This is professional competence.
It changes how you work with every client, not only those visibly at Burnout.
What you will walk
away WITH …
WHY THIS MATTERS NOW.
Burnout is everywhere. Clear Burnout recognition is not.
When Burnout is present, familiar coaching tools lose their effectiveness.
Goal setting stalls.
Insight does not translate into action.
Performance frameworks collapse under nervous system overload.
This happens because the nervous system no longer has access to the capacity those tools assume.
Without the ability to recognise this shift in real time, coaching relies on guesswork.
Guesswork creates risk.
Burnout-Informed Coaching exists because continuing without this awareness is no longer ethically or professionally acceptable.
Because nothing else teaches coaches what they actually need to see, say and do when Burnout is present.
Not trends.
Not buzzwords.
Not borrowed models.
This training is built on neuroscience, psychology, somatics and lived experience - designed for real coaching rooms, not theory labs.
This is coaching redesigned for the reality your clients are living in.
Why this
training exists.
This training is for coaches who already see the limits of traditional approaches and are ready to work with clarity, safety and responsibility.

The Burnout-Informed Coach Training
2-day live training + accreditation pathway
Includes:
• Core Burnout recognition and response
• Ethical decision-making and boundaries
• Practical tools for real coaching sessions
The COST OF NOT DOING THIS…
Nothing changes.
Clients keep ghosting.
Sessions keep stalling.
Your confidence erodes quietly.
And the clients who most need competent support are the least likely to tell you you’re missing something.
Because you can’t fix what you can’t see.
And right now, most coaches cannot see burnout clearly enough to work with it safely.
This is your line in the sand.
Burnout-Informed Coaching is not a nice idea.
It is not a future trend.
It is not optional if you work with humans under pressure.
You are either coaching performance or you are coaching humans.
Burnout-Informed Coaching sits in the gap between the two.
WHAT THE ALUMNI SAY.

I completed a 2 day Burnout Academy with Kelly and I was blown away not only by Kelly's knowledge of burnout but how engaging she made the 2 days so it really sunk in. I don't think I have ever done a full day on zoom before without losing the will to live. Kelly left me wanting more! She's also full of empathy and understanding and when I had a wobble about my own past burnout she held that space for me beautifully. If you're considering working with Kelly, I would highly recommend on my experience so far!

I can honestly say this was like no training programme I have attended. I was completely focused throughout and never once looked at my watch over the 2 days. I thought I knew all about Burnout and was over it. How wrong I was. Kelly just has a way of explaining things that made it all fall into place. I learnt so much more about Burnout, particularly the neuroscience behind it and gained so many tools to use with my clients to support them on their journey to prevent and recover from burnout. But more than this I learnt about me and what I need to do to be kinder to myself going forward. Kelly’s delivery style is inclusive and fun, and her level of knowledge is exceptional. She created a safe space that allowed for a deeper level of discussion and learning. I cannot recommend this program enough for anyone who wants to truly understand burnout and support the mission to banish it.

I attended Kelly's first Burnout Academy programme and loved the two days I learned heaps about burnout and how it affects people, as well as reflecting on my own personal experience of burnout. Kelly is informative, warm, engaging and a true expert. I now feel empowered and confident to identify burnout, and have the techniques to help my clients through this. I'd recommend this programme to anyone who wants to understand this and help make a difference. Thank you Kelly!

The experiences shared above reflect operational change, not surface-level confidence.
These coaches did not leave with motivation or inspiration. They left with clarity.
Clarity about what they were seeing in the room.
Clarity about when to intervene and when to stop.
Clarity about how to work without pushing capacity that was no longer there.
The result was quieter sessions, stronger boundaries, safer outcomes and work that finally aligned with the reality their clients were living.
