105 | Burnout, Decision Fatigue, and How Leaders Reclaim Control Under Pressure

In this episode of The Executive Exhale Podcast, I sit down with executive coach Weronika Sobolak, a former Meta leader who built global teams and later navigated her own experience of burnout and stress related health impacts.

We talk about how burnout often builds quietly through decision fatigue, disrupted sleep, and gradual energy depletion long before a breaking point. Weronika shares practical tools leaders can use under pressure, including her Rule of Five mindset reset, simple ways to listen to what the body is holding, and how EFT tapping can support nervous system regulation.

We also explore what organizations do that unintentionally accelerate burnout, especially lack of clarity, feedback, and direction during constant change. We wrap with a grounded reminder that sustainable leadership starts with pausing, building a strong support system, and aligning daily actions with what truly matters.
