Sorry to hear about it. It sucks but doing this new personal-values work you're doing is probably going to have to feel like a grind for a little while, until you find your new groove, new passions, and so on. In case it helps, I built a productivity system that aims at assisting in work conditions where this kind of balance is needed (profile). One other thing to pay attention to during this period is the big-picture / little-picture divide. Sometimes burnout and finding-meaning processes respond best to focusing on one of those at a time, or both. For the big-picture items, usually that includes words like "meaning" and "reconnecting" and talking about general plans, strategies, and so on. But to satisfy the little-picture focus, it's important to have access to & try out little-picture terms like "today's podcast choice," "today's donut of choice," "today's list of things that suck" (to process them faster, restoring access to good feels), and so on. Personally I went through a lot of different burnout phases before I found the kind of life that works best for me (i.e. no more burnout, etc.), and I find that an almost rhythmic cycle between big and little picture is very useful. The different perspectives can support each other very well. Anyway, just some thoughts, good luck with everything.
