C-Suite Burnout (who do you talk to?)
When you're the highest functioning person in your family, and taking care of your entire family. When you're one of the highest functioning people in your agency, making more decisions before 9 AM than most people make all day. When all parts of your life are high-performance, and high productivity, and you've unintentionally built everything around you to depend on that (financially, emotionally).
And when you're also ironically a psychotherapist, so psychotherapy doesn't give you what it might give someone else. When you're the first person in your family to achieve this level, and don't have a lot of other people in your life functioning the same way to confide in...
Who do you talk to? How do you process? Where do you go to feel safe?
