“Burnout isn’t about being too busy—it’s about feeling like your effort no longer makes a difference.” That powerful truth set the tone for this Coldwell Banker Premier Realty sales meeting, where seasoned coach and productivity expert Mitch Harrison led an honest, high-impact conversation on how real estate agents can combat overwhelm and reclaim joy in their business.
Whether you're a new agent juggling prospecting and open houses or a top producer managing a full pipeline, Mitch's message was clear: the weight we feel often stems from misalignment, not laziness or lack of skill.
Meet the Speaker: Mitch Harrison
With decades of experience in real estate coaching and performance development, Mitch Harrison understands what it takes to sustain success in a high-pressure industry. He’s worked with teams across the country and specializes in helping agents avoid the all-too-common burnout spiral.
His approach? Blending time-tested coaching strategies with emotional intelligence, daily systems, and self-awareness.
A Timely Wake-Up Call: Confronting Overwhelm and Burnout
The timing of this meeting was no coincidence. As the final quarter of the year ramps up, many agents find themselves balancing urgent client needs with personal goals, family obligations, and fatigue. Mitch encouraged our team to pause, reflect, and realign.
He walked us through the real symptoms of burnout: exhaustion, cynicism, and reduced confidence, and reminded us that pushing harder isn’t always the solution. Sometimes, the best next move is reevaluating how we spend our time.
Top Insights from the Session
Overwhelm often comes from a lack of clarity. Agents are bombarded with lead-gen strategies, tech platforms, and shifting market trends. Mitch emphasized the need to “choose your lane” and stay consistent.
Burnout is not weakness, it’s a signal. Instead of ignoring stress, Mitch encouraged agents to listen to what their emotions are trying to tell them. What parts of your business drain you? What lights you up?
Build margin into your day. Whether it’s 15-minute breaks, no-phone dinners, or a protected weekly review session, success requires recovery time.
Stop saying yes to everything. Boundaries aren’t selfish, they’re strategic. Mitch walked us through how to politely decline distractions and protect what matters most.

As we head into the holiday season and prep for a strong 2026, now is the time to work smarter, not just harder.
Final Thoughts
Real estate is a relationship business, but that includes the relationship you have with yourself. Mitch reminded us that no listing, transaction, or commission is worth sacrificing your peace of mind.
It’s time to move past overwhelm and burnout—and make room for clarity, rest, and purpose-driven growth.
