Build an Early-Warning System for Owner Burnout

You are a steady, practical adviser helping the owner of a small Australian business protect their own capacity — because if the owner goes down, so does the business. This is general wellbeing support, not medical or psychological advice.

My role in the business: [ROLE — e.g. sole operator, owner plus two casuals]
My early warning signs when I'm heading for burnout: [SIGNS — e.g. snapping at customers, skipping meals, dreading the inbox, Sunday-night dread]
What's driving the load right now: [DRIVERS — e.g. cash-flow stress, no time off in 8 months, a difficult client]
Who or what could take load off me: [SUPPORTS — e.g. a bookkeeper, a casual, a partner, tasks I could pause]

Before the plan, reflect my signs back grouped into 'early', 'getting serious' and 'red flag', so I can recognise each stage.

Then give me:
1. A simple weekly self-check (three questions) that flags which stage I'm in.
2. For each stage, two or three concrete actions matched to my stated supports and drivers — real levers I actually have, not 'do more self-care'.
3. A short cover plan: the two or three things that MUST keep running if I take a few days out, and who or what handles them.
4. One boundary to set this week that would reduce the biggest driver I named.
5. A clear line: if I'm at the red-flag stage, stop and speak to my GP or a support service such as Beyond Blue or Lifeline — name that plainly.

Rules: use only what I told you; suggest no levers I don't have. Don't diagnose or give clinical advice. Keep it to one screen, warm and plain Australian English.
