    Burned Out But Still Delivering?

    The most dangerous burnout isn’t the one that collapses. It’s the one that keeps performing. High-functioning burnout looks like competence under pressure — reliable, composed, high-capacity leadership that never visibly breaks. Which is exactly why it goes unnoticed. In this episode of Performance Under Pressure, Katie Nickel breaks down: • The 3 hidden reasons high performers burn out • The Pressure Pattern: performance → identity → reinforcement • Why being “the one who handles it” becomes an identity trap • How intermittent reinforcement keeps responsible leaders looping If you’re still delivering but quietly exhausted, this episode will give you language for what’s actually happening — and why it’s not a personal flaw. Mini episode follows with 4 strategic shifts to interrupt the pattern this week — without blowing up your calendar or turning burnout recovery into a new performance goal. Performance isn’t the problem. Pressure is. ⁠www.thenickelcollective.com⁠ The Pressure Audit Questions: Where am I still performing instead of admitting this is too much?When did responsibility become part of my identity?If pressure were redistributed, what part of me would feel exposed?
