004: Should I, Would I, Could I - with Leisha Davies


Listen Later

Are you a perfectionist? What does that even mean? Do you suffer from anxiety or burnout? What does that even mean? Join me in chatting to the amazing Leisha Davies, a Clinical Psychologist, on different types of people and the triggers to look for when stress hits the tipping point. 

 

Best Quotes:

Burnout is getting caught up in things driven by the words ‘should’, ‘ought’, ‘must’ and not always the word ‘want’.

  • The kinds of people most at risk of burnout is the ‘perfectionists’ – people who have unrelenting standards and judge themselves and others without mercy.

  • Our brains are set up to focus on the survival system and because of this, our unconscious beliefs drive our compulsion to keep things going.

  • We don’t always realise when we get into a new habit. It becomes a procedural memory and an automated function of the body system.
