The Fix for Work Fixation Course:
How to Stop Obsessing Over Work
The Workday Ended — So Why Is Work Still In Your Head?
You’ve clocked out.
Shut the laptop.
Walked away from your desk.
But your mind didn’t get the memo.
If you’re like so many healthcare workers, educators, and service-driven professionals, work doesn’t stay at work. It follows you home. It takes over your thoughts while you’re cooking dinner, scrolling your phone, or trying to fall asleep.
The workday is over — but the obsessive
work thoughts keep spinning:
Did I forget to follow up on that email?
Was my tone okay in that meeting?
What will they think when they see that report?
Am I even good at my job anymore?
This constant mental noise isn’t just frustrating — it’s exhausting. And worst of all?
It’s stealing your time, your energy, and your peace of mind.
You’re Not Alone — And It’s Not Your Fault
Hi, I’m Patrick Riecke — a former healthcare leader who knows exactly what it’s like to be trapped in this cycle.
For years, I carried my work home with me — not just in my inbox, but in my head.
Every quiet moment was hijacked by work worries, and I didn’t know how to stop.
It turns out, I wasn’t the only one. In my work as a burnout speaker and coach, I hear it all the time:
❝I just can’t turn my brain off.❞
❝It’s like work owns my thoughts — even when I’m not there.❞
❝I don’t even know who I am outside of work anymore.❞
If that sounds familiar, you’re not broken — but you do need new tools.
Introducing: The Fix for Work Fixation
This self-paced, online course is designed for service-driven professionals who need to stop
obsessing over work and start living their lives again.
Inside, you’ll find:
✅ 24 video lessons that explain why work thoughts become so sticky — and how to loosen their grip
✅ Dozens of downloadable tools and exercises to help you reframe, redirect, and retrain your thoughts
✅ Simple practices to help you actually enjoy your evenings, weekends, and time off
✅ Strategies grounded in neuroscience and real-life experience, designed for professionals like you
This isn’t about toxic positivity or telling you to just “leave work at work.” It’s about understanding how your brain, nervous system, and workplace culture have trained you to overthink — and how you can train yourself to think differently.
Imagine a Life Where Work Doesn’t Own Your Mind
What would it feel like to:
⭐ Enjoy your evenings without mentally replaying every email and conversation?
⭐ Fall asleep without your brain running through tomorrow’s to-do list?
⭐ Spend time with your family — fully present — instead of distracted by work stress?
⭐ Remember who you are outside of work — and rediscover hobbies, passions, and personal goals?
That life is possible. And The Fix for Work Fixation will help you get there.

❓ What if my job is super demanding — can I still benefit?
Yes! This course isn’t about quitting your job or making major changes at work (though you might decide to after you gain some clarity). It’s about learning how to train your mind to let go of work thoughts even if your job is high-pressure.❓ How long do I have access to the course?
Depending on the payment option you select, you’ll either receive lifetime access or ongoing access as long as you remain a subscriber.❓ Will this course tell me I need to quit my job?
No. This isn’t about quitting — it’s about giving you back control over your mind, no matter where you work. Whether you stay, go, or change roles, you’ll have the tools to keep work from taking over your life.❓ Is this therapy?
No, this course is not a substitute for therapy. It’s an educational and coaching-based program designed to help you better understand the thought patterns and work culture dynamics contributing to obsessive work thoughts. If you’re struggling with trauma, OCD, or other clinical issues, I encourage you to seek support from a licensed mental health professional.

Burnout happens to good people, who want to do good work, who are put into impossible situations again and again.
