What is Burnout?

Burnout is a psychological syndrome emerging as a prolonged response to chronic interpersonal stressors.

​

There are 3 main aspects to be aware of:

1. An overwhelming sense of exhaustion

2. Feelings of cynicism and detachment

3. A sense of ineffectiveness and lack of accomplishment

​

Although you may not experience all of these at the same time, or even experience them equally, burnout is real and can severely impact our lives.

Let's Talk Statistics

Workplace burnout isn't new, however it reached a record high in 2020 amidst the Coronavirus outbreak. It is a significant and global issue for both workplaces and employees.

It is possible to move on and heal from burnout. Let me show you how.

It took a pretty huge stress meltdown for me to finally realise I was experiencing severe burnout. I was working ridiculously long hours, handling multiple large projects, managing a team, and operating in a state of constant high stress to get tasks done perfectly on time.

​

The stress wasn't just impacting how I felt and acted at work, but literally all aspects of my life. It was affecting how I showed up as a mother, my relationship with my husband, and having profound impacts on my physical health.

​

I have been able to take my life back, and in the process I have become an expert on beating and managing burnout and work stress. I want to teach you how to take your life back too.

​

Using proven scientific techniques, mindfulness practices and lots of life hacks, I can teach you how to better manage your stress. I can help you find happiness in your job by working towards a genuine work/life balance. Either in your current job, or helping you to find something new.
