What is The Burn In Model?

The Burn In Model© is a practical, holistic framework that makes sense of burnout, alignment and human wellbeing. It distils complex science into a simple fire-based metaphor that reveals what energizes people, what drains them and what supports meaningful, sustainable change.

Each of us has an inner flame - shaped by our energy, our roles and the environments around us. It burns bright when fueled and fades when conditions are out of alignment. The Burn In Model© makes these dynamics visible so you can understand them clearly and work with them intentionally.

It gives you the language, structure and direction to support others with confidence and clarity - and a grounded pathway to help people Burn In, Not Out.
