What if you're not imagining it?

Gifty Enright knew something wasn't right. She was working a demanding corporate job, raising a family and tracking 14 different symptoms yet she kept being told that feeling exhausted was simply part of being a busy working mother.

In this episode, Gifty and Sophie explore burnout, motherhood, women's wellbeing and the pressure women experience to keep functioning even when something feels deeply wrong.

But perhaps the biggest lesson is much simpler:

If you feel unheard, start by hearing yourself.

What if burnout and addiction are different expressions of the same struggle?

Most people think addiction only refers to alcohol or drugs.

But what if overworking, perfectionism, people pleasing and relentless achievement are all coping mechanisms too?

In this episode, Sophie Theen sits down with psychiatrist Dr Daniel Hochman to explore the surprising relationship between burnout, addiction and identity. Together they discuss why many high achievers unknowingly become addicted to coping strategies that slowly disconnect them from themselves, and why changing jobs isn't always enough to break the cycle.
