As achievement orientated working mums who care deeply about our family and our work, we are often left feeling overwhelmed. The volume and complexity of the demands in our lives is leaving us in survival mode. And it's completely unsustainable for us and our families.

This week's podcast episode is a must listen if:

• the mere task of getting through the day and your never ending to-do-list leaves you feeling exhausted
• you're trying to work like you don't have a family and be with your family like you don't have work and feeling overwhelmed by it all
• you have no time to catch your breath and the nearest you get to pampering is a when the steam from your coffee smacks you in the face!

I interview James Glover who is Client Director for The Energy Project UK. James is not only a World and European Sports Champion. He has spent a decade coaching and supporting some of the world's highest performing individuals and teams to be at their best. He is also a busy working parent himself.

Now in his work for The Energy Project, James applies the science of high performance and helps people focus on what it takes to be at their best more sustainably. James generously shared his wisdom and experience on how working parents and working mothers can be happier, healthier, more focussed and more aligned to things that really matter in their lives.
