FROM BURNOUT TO PURPOSE:
A COACH’S GUIDE FOR THRIVING HR PROFESSIONALS
Deadlines were a constant storm, responsibilities piled like paperwork I couldn't escape, and work-life balance felt like a tightrope walk without a net. This wasn't the HR career I signed up for. It was the moment I, like countless others in the field, questioned everything. Where was the passion I started with? The drive to improve employee well-being, the spark of building a vibrant company culture? Burnout had settled in, leaving me disconnected from what initially fuelled my purpose.
As a former HR professional myself, I understand the immense pressure and potential for disconnection within the field. I vividly recall the early days of my career, brimming with passion for employee wellbeing and organisational change. Armed with ambition and a can-do attitude, I readily pushed myself, even at the expense of my wellbeing. Long hours and chronic stress seemed par for the course. However, after a few disillusioning years, the purpose that fuelled me had dwindled, leaving me questioning my daily grind.
This wasn't just my story, it's a shared experience too familiar in the fast-paced world of HR. You might find yourself nodding along, feeling the echo of those long hours and mounting pressure. That's because many of us, driven by the desire to make a difference, end up sacrificing our wellbeing in the process.
My turning point wasn't a single event, but a slow realisation. The disconnect crept in, chipping away at the initial passion. But it was also the catalyst for a transformative journey. Recognising the need for change, I embarked on a personal and professional development expedition.
This wasn't about quick fixes or magic solutions. It was about introspection, learning, and discovering powerful coaching techniques. Through this journey, I rediscovered not just my purpose, but my passion: guiding other HR professionals back to theirs.
Through coaching, I unlocked a toolbox of techniques that helped me reclaim my career purpose. Learning to manage stress, prioritise self-care, and set healthy boundaries wasn't just about self-preservation; it became the foundation for impactful leadership.
