Nobody puts burnout on a balance sheet.

But maybe they should.

When a burned-out employee finally does what burned-out employees do, they leave. And that's where the real cost shows up.

Replacing one person costs between 50% to 200% of their annual salary.

Not a wellness stat. A financial one.

That number includes the interviews, the onboarding, the months of reduced productivity while someone new finds their footing, and the institutional knowledge that walked out the door and never fully comes back.

For a Canadian company with 500 employees, burnout-related losses can exceed $3.4 million annually. 47% of Canadian workers reported feeling burned out in 2025, up 14 points from just two years ago.

Run those two numbers together. The picture gets uncomfortable fast.

Most organizations respond with better benefits. More flexibility. A meditation app.

But burnout is fundamentally an energy problem. And energy is built daily, through recovery, through rest, and through how people are actually fuelling themselves every single workday.

The companies that understand this early aren't just building healthier teams.

They're protecting a line item most of their competitors aren't even tracking yet.

That conversation is worth having before the resignation letter lands on your desk.

DM me, let's talk.
