How to Work Free From Burnout
There is one belief that keeps high achievers stuck in burnout long after they should be recovering - the belief that burning out means they failed.This is a live panel discussion from the Burnout Free Working Conference — an unscripted conversation about what burnout recovery actually requires, why the self-blame makes it impossible to start, and the single reframe that changes how you see every
How to Hold Someone Accountable Without Losing the Relationship
There's something most leaders do - we avoid the conversation that needs to be had. We care too much about the wrong things: how the other person will react, whether it will make things awkward, whether we'll be the one blamed if they go off sick. Our ingrained programming tells us that keeping the peace is the same as keeping the relationship, but it isn't.In this episode, Joe Weston is back for
Am I a Snowflake If I’m Not Coping Now?
A doctor emailed me recently, she's been in medicine for 25 years, and the question she asked was one I've heard in a hundred different ways: "Am I a snowflake?"She felt a great deal of shame about finding things hard - something I see time and time again in high achievers. Like the feeling that not coping is proof of something wrong with you. A character flaw. A sign you've gone soft.But the data
How Wanting to Do More at Work Becomes a Burnout Warning Sign for High Achievers
When Aoife O'Brien is close to burnout, she doesn't want to stop. She wants to do more. One more task. One more thing to get through before she can stop. She says that's how she knows now - not the exhaustion, not the breaking point, but the acceleration. If you recognise that feeling, this conversation names what's actually happening. Not to add to your list. To give you a cleaner way to read wha
Why Summer Makes Your Burnout Worse (And It's Not Your Fault)
You may have been counting down to summer all year, telling yourself that you just need to survive until your next holiday. You may have been looking forward to taking a pause and getting a chance to finally breathe.But when you get to your holiday, instead of feeling rested, you feel more exhausted, more overwhelmed, and more behind. And somewhere underneath the busyness, you might be thinking: w
Masking, Over-Functioning and the Shame That Keeps You Stuck
If you've always felt like everyone else got an unwritten handbook about how to behave at work - and you've had to figure it out yourself, one interaction at a time - this episode is for you.This week, Rachel’s in conversation with Kirstie Pickles: vet, autistic ADHD professional, and EDI advocate. Kirstie was diagnosed as an adult - after years of masking in a high-stakes clinical role, performin
Why You Can't Switch Off (And It's Not About Workload)
Burnout in high stress jobs isn't always about doing too much; sometimes it's about a belief you were never taught to question.You finished your day, finished (most) of your tasks, and you still can't switch off. Most people assume that's a workload problem, but the reason people in demanding roles like medicine can't genuinely rest isn't about how much they've done - it's about what they've been
The Occupational Hazard Every High-Achieving Leader Needs to Know About
Getting a complaint from a colleague is one of the most destabilising things that can happen to a high-achieving leader. Not because of the process, but because of what it makes you ask about yourself.In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Pallavi Bradshaw, Medical Director at the MPS, to talk about something that doesn't get named nearly enough: a complaint from a colleague isn't a patient or client
Why Imposter Syndrome Isn't a Confidence Problem
Imposter syndrome is something we often don’t talk about openly, and the standard advice - build your confidence, reframe your thinking, remember your achievements – rarely addresses the real cause.In this Quick Dip, Rachel shares a piece of feedback she received years ago that still stings and uses it to unpick what imposter syndrome really is: it’s not a confidence gap, it’s not a skills deficit
Why Your Workload Keeps Growing Without You Agreeing To It

What to Do When Your Career Map No Longer Fits
You know something needs to change, but you just have no idea what, how, or where to begin, and your lack of a plan may be starting to feel like failure.In this Quick Dip, Rachel unpacks why the belief that you need everything mapped out before you're allowed to move is the very thing keeping you stuck, and introduces the AB-Z method: a simple framework that replaces the impossible task of knowing

How to Stop Doing Everything
If you’ve ever thought to yourself ‘if I don’t do it, no one will’ this episode is for you.

5 Reasons Your Ideas Keep Getting Overlooked (And How to Fix It)
