Ending MSP Burnout: A Mental Health Roadmap to Breakthrough
Running an MSP can feel like a never-ending sprint—until your mind and your motivation hit a wall.
In this episode, I sat down with Scott Scrogin, Strategic Initiatives Director at ConnectWise, to talk about the thing no one builds a dashboard for: burnout.
We covered the real stuff—what it looks like when you’re scaling fast and still feel stuck, what happens when your identity is wrapped up in the business, and how to build resilience that actually lasts.
Scott’s been in the seat. From growing and exiting his MSP to now helping lead big-picture strategy at ConnectWise, he’s seen what burnout does to founders—and what it takes to get back in control.
If your brain’s been running on fumes, this one’s for you.
