The Middle Matters

Burnout Isn’t the Real Problem—Disconnection Is


Listen Later

You’re doing everything right—checking in, pushing results, offering perks—but your team still feels distant, disengaged, and tired.

The truth?
Burnout isn’t the root problem. It’s the symptom.
The real issue is disconnection—and most leaders never see it coming until it’s already cost them trust, talent, and traction.

In this episode of UnMuted: The Leadership Reset, Phillip Edge pulls back the curtain on what burnout is really trying to tell you about your leadership and your culture.
You’ll discover:

  • Why burnout is costing companies millions—and how to stop the silent leak

  • 3 real-time culture shifts you can make today to re-engage your people

  • How to lead with connection, not just correction—without sacrificing performance

If your team is showing signs of fatigue, silence, or emotional distance, this episode is your reset.

🎯 And if you’re ready to take an honest look at your culture, Phillip is offering a free strategy session to help you assess where disconnection is hiding—and build a real plan to bring your team back to life.
