Burnout often means you're not delegating. Trust yourself to handle problems and trust your team's expertise. Start by delegating small, low-risk tasks without micromanaging, and accept that mistakes happen.

The first thing we need to trust is we need to trust ourselves, that I am the person who can manage those challenges. I am the person who, if something goes wrong, I can fix that. The second thing is trusting, like, in people you're working with. I trust them that they have expertise. I trust them that they have experience. And if we are working on the same team, I trust that they are as motivated as I am and they can solve those problems and we can solve those problems. And if something goes wrong, we can fix that. So kind of those 2 things, they lay the foundation of letting go of control one step at a time. And the next one is practice, because it's behavior. It's what we do. And what you do is, okay, you delegate one task. You, like, you have no control over it. It might be some safe task. It might be some safe assignment that you don't check in. You don't control. If something goes wrong, I mean, you can, it's okay.
