Learn practical strategies for managing dark days and spotting the early signs of burnout before they overwhelm you.

Stuart O’Neill shares his personal framework for navigating difficult seasons. By using simple analogies, like identifying when he is in the red zone or the bullseye of a dartboard, he has developed a way to pause when he feels fried. This kind of emotional awareness allows him to step back and recognize that these heavy periods are temporary, rather than permanent states.

This conversation is for anyone who struggles to identify their own limits or wants to build greater mental health resilience. Stuart’s approach focuses on acceptance and patience, teaching us that recognizing burnout is the first step toward moving through it. By normalizing these challenges, we can create space for ourselves to recover without the pressure to fix everything immediately.
