Burnout is a growing concern, dominating workplace discussions and social media. But what does it actually mean? Is it just a buzzword or a real issue we need to take seriously?

To help us unpack all of this, we’re joined by Dr. Claire Ashley, neuroscientist and clinician, who has 15 years of experience helping individuals and organisations prevent and recover from burnout using evidence-based strategies.


In This Episode, We Cover:

  • What burnout actually means and how to recognise it
  • Burnout versus day-to-day stress, what's the difference?
  • The most effective ways to prevent and recover from burnout
  • Simple steps to reduce stress and avoid burnout
