June 07, 2026Why Work Stress is Fueling Your Phone Addiction (Corporate Professionals)
Why do so many corporate professionals feel addicted to their phones, social media, scrolling, gaming, or constant distraction during stressful work days?
In this episode of Wave Work Stress Goodbye, work stress and anxiety coach Luke Richardson explores the deeper connection between work stress, smartphone addiction, dopamine chasing, and emotional overwhelm in modern corporate life.
Luke shares his own personal experience of being addicted to his PlayStation from the age of 10 and how technology became a way to escape uncomfortable thoughts and feelings. From endless scrolling and checking notifications to constantly reaching for distractions during stressful moments at work, this episode uncovers what’s really going on beneath these habits.
But what if phone addiction and technology addiction aren’t actually caused by the devices themselves?
What if the real issue is our misunderstanding of how human experience is created?
In this conversation, you’ll discover:
Why work stress often fuels phone addiction and compulsive scrolling
The hidden psychology behind smartphone addiction in corporate professionals
Why trying to “control” or fight your habits can sometimes make them worse
How thoughts and feelings drive addictive behaviour more than technology itself
Why you don’t need endless self-help methods, productivity hacks, or willpower to feel free
How understanding the mind can naturally reduce stress, distraction, and emotional dependence on your phone
How to feel calmer, more focused, happier, and more present at work and in life
If you struggle with work anxiety, burnout, overthinking, social media addiction, doomscrolling, people pleasing, or constantly needing distraction to cope with stress, this episode offers a completely different perspective that could help you feel lighter and more in control naturally.

May 24, 2026Toxic Work Colleagues and the Real Source of Stress (Corporate Professionals)
In this episode of Wave Work Stress Goodbye, we explore one of the hardest but most freeing insights around workplace stress, toxic colleagues, office anxiety and difficult people at work.
What if the stress we feel around certain coworkers isn’t actually coming from them?
For years I believed toxic work colleagues were the direct cause of my frustration, anxiety and negative moods at work. But the deeper I looked, the more I began to realise something uncomfortable but incredibly powerful:
Different people can experience the exact same person completely differently.
One employee thinks a colleague is supportive and funny.
Another thinks they’re arrogant, rude and impossible to work with.
So where is the stressful experience really coming from?
In this episode, I share the inside-out understanding behind workplace stress, overthinking and emotional resilience — and why seeing the role of thought can completely transform how we experience difficult coworkers, office politics and stressful work environments.
If you struggle with:
toxic coworkers
workplace anxiety
office stress
difficult managers
overthinking at work
emotional exhaustion
corporate burnout
negative work environments
…this conversation may completely change how you see your experience.

May 03, 2026How to Lead with Influence (Without Stress) - When You're Already Under Pressure in a Corporate Role
How to Lead with Influence (Without Stress) — Building Stronger Relationships Through Clear Thinking in Corporate Roles
What if better leadership wasn’t about doing more… but about thinking more clearly?
In this episode of Wave Work Stress Goodbye, we explore how leaders — from team leaders to CEOs — can create stronger, more effective relationships with their teams by understanding the impact of pressure and overthinking.
Because the truth is:
👉 When your thinking is cluttered, your relationships suffer
👉 When your mind is clear, connection and influence naturally improve
If you’re in a corporate role — whether you’re a:
CEO
Managing Director
Sales Director
Team Leader
— and you want to lead with more clarity, calm, and influence… this episode will resonate.
Why pressure and overthinking quietly damage team relationships
How unclear thinking affects communication, trust, and leadership presence
The link between a leader’s state of mind and team performance
Why trying harder often creates more distance — not better connection
How clear, unburdened thinking leads to better conversations and decisions
When your mind is free from noise and pressure, you naturally:
listen better
communicate more clearly
respond rather than react
build stronger trust with colleagues and team members
👉 And that’s where real leadership influence comes from.
✔️ Corporate professionals in leadership roles
✔️ Senior leaders managing teams under pressure
✔️ High performers navigating workplace stress
✔️ Anyone wanting to improve relationships at work without burnout
If you’ve ever felt like:
conversations at work feel harder than they should
you’re not showing up as clearly as you’d like
pressure is affecting how you lead your team
…this episode will help you see why — and what changes when your thinking clears.
💡 In this episode, you’ll discover:👊 What this means for you🎯

April 26, 2026High Performer Anxiety at Work: How to Think Clearly and Solve Problems Under Pressure
Do you feel pressure at work even when you’re doing well?
If you’re a high-performing professional in a corporate role, you might recognise this:
overthinking decisions
second-guessing yourself
feeling anxious before meetings, deadlines or performance reviews
struggling to switch off after work
In this episode, we explore why high performer anxiety is so common — and why traditional advice like time management, productivity hacks, or “thinking more positively” often doesn’t solve it.
Instead, we look at something deeper:
👉 Where your experience of pressure and anxiety is actually coming from
👉 Why your ability to think clearly disappears under pressure
👉 How clarity returns naturally when you understand what’s really going on
This isn’t about managing stress better.
It’s about seeing something new — so you can:
make better decisions at work
feel more confident in high-pressure situations
stop overthinking and second-guessing
experience more clarity, even on busy days
If you’re a manager, leader, or corporate professional who wants to perform at a high level without feeling constantly stressed, this episode will resonate.

April 19, 2026 Why Work Feels Meaningless Sometimes | Author Sacha Hughes on 10 Years in Corporate & Love, Grief and More Sex Than Pinot
In this episode of Wave Work Stress Goodbye, I sit down with British author Sacha Hughes to explore why work can sometimes feel meaningless — even when everything on the surface looks “fine.”
Sacha shares her experience of spending 10 years in the corporate world, and how that period of her life shaped both her perspective and her writing. We talk openly about the pressures of corporate life, the emotional impact of grief, and how our experience of work (and life) isn’t always coming from where we think it is.
This is a conversation that goes beyond surface-level stress management. Together, we explore a deeper understanding of where feelings like pressure, anxiety and overwhelm are really coming from — and what begins to change when we start to see that more clearly.
I particularly enjoyed hearing how Sacha reflects on her past experiences, and how her understanding has evolved over time. It’s a powerful reminder that even in the same circumstances, our experience can shift dramatically depending on what’s happening internally.
Sacha’s new book, Love, Grief and More Sex Than Pinot, released on 16th April 2026, is now available on Amazon. It’s been described as a cross between Bridget Jones and Fleabag, blending humour, honesty and real-life experiences. Following the life experiences of main character Soho Summers after the death of her mother.
If you’ve ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, or questioned the meaning behind your work, this episode will really resonate.

April 05, 2026Easter Reset: The One Job You're Forgetting (And Why Work Stress Feels So Real)
Feeling overwhelmed, burned out, or stuck in work stress that just won’t switch off? This Easter reset episode of Wave Work Stress Goodbye points to something surprisingly simple—but often overlooked.
Most of us believe stress comes from our workload, deadlines, or demanding environments. But what if the real source of stress isn’t your job at all?
In this episode, we explore the one job you may be forgetting—and how overlooking it can make work stress feel intense, constant, and very real.
Through the lens of the inside-out understanding, you’ll begin to see:
Why stress at work feels so real (even when nothing has changed externally)
The hidden role of thought in creating pressure, anxiety, and overwhelm* How a simple shift in understanding can naturally reset your mind
This isn’t about techniques, time management, or pushing through burnout. It’s about seeing something deeper that allows clarity, calm, and resilience to return on their own.
If you’re looking for a fresh perspective on work stress, mental health, and burnout recovery—this episode offers a powerful reset.
Perfect for listeners interested in:
work stress relief, burnout recovery, anxiety at work, mental wellbeing, mindfulness (without techniques), the Three Principles, inside-out understanding, and how to stop overthinking.

If you enjoy the episode, explore more conversations on work stress, burnout, leadership pressure and the psychology of experience on Wave Work Stress Goodbye.
