You show up.
You hit deadlines.
You smile on the Zoom call.
You keep everything moving—even when you’re running on fumes.
You’re praised for being reliable, composed, “strong.”
But no one sees the crash that comes after.
The silence in your chest.
The tears behind the closed door.
The constant tension in your jaw, your shoulders, your gut.
You’re not lazy.
You’re not fragile.
You’re not dramatic.
You may be living with high-functioning burnout—a survival state that too many women of color have been conditioned to normalize.
And your body is tired of pretending.
What Is High-Functioning Burnout?
High-functioning burnout is what happens when your nervous system keeps performing—but your capacity is gone.
From the outside, you seem in control. On the inside, you’re unraveling.
You might feel:
- Emotionally flat or numb
- Unable to rest, even when you’re exhausted
- Tired when you wake and wired at night
- Disconnected from joy, creativity, or meaning
- Obligated to keep going—but without desire
This isn’t “just stress.”
It’s your nervous system stuck in overdrive, convinced that slowing down isn’t safe.
Why Women of Color Are Especially at Risk
Your intuition isn’t gone—it’s just buried beneath layers of noise, fear, and conditioning.
When you learn to trust yourself again, you:
- Make decisions from clarity, not fear
- Navigate life from inner alignment, not external approval
- Recognize your body as a wise, trustworthy guide
Self-trust is the foundation of becoming.
This work is not about becoming someone new—it’s about coming home to who you’ve always been.
Burnout isn’t just about your workload—it’s about what your body has been trained to tolerate.
As women of color, many of us were taught:
- Rest is laziness
- Strength means silence
- Asking for help is weakness
- Our worth is tied to output, sacrifice, and holding it all together
We internalize this.
We override our signals.
We normalize our exhaustion.
And we wear our ability to endure like armor.
Until we can’t anymore.
This Isn’t Weakness—It’s Wisdom from Your Body
That deep fatigue?
It’s not failure. It’s feedback.
Your nervous system is asking for:
- Safety
- Slowness
- Space to recover
- Permission to feel
You don’t need more hustle—you need restoration.
Not as a reward for burning out, but as a birthright.
