Slip Psychology

Burnout doesn’t mean you’re broken. It means something needs to change.

If you’ve noticed that the way you used to push through just isn’t working anymore, that’s not weakness. That’s your body/ brain asking for something different.

When energy is low, even small changes can feel impossible. So start ridiculously small. Smaller than feels worth it.

Something I see a lot in my practice is individuals carrying the weight of their childhood into adulthood. More specifically sometimes feeling achieving more will validate sense of self, and create safety. Thoughts might look like “if I just do this one last thing the ...” The people that they’ve looked up to in the past and maybe even still currently, holds so much weight over the type of person they want to be. And like in the past, those people can still fall short. The cool thing about adulthood is we might see more choice in the types of people we’d like to embody. Leaping into the Faith of choosing something different for ourselves, even the people we’re looking up to, can be really scary and at the same time be really freeing. 🌼

P.S. This is my cat, his name is Lem. As you can tell he’s very tolerant. 😂

Hey everyone 👋

Just popping in to let you know I currently have telehealth availability if you've been thinking about getting some support.

Sessions are one-on-one, online, and available Australia-wide, so you can join from home or wherever works for you.

I work with young professionals who are good at holding it together on the outside but are privately exhausted by how much space everything else takes up in their head. If that sounds like you, it might be worth a conversation.

Some of the things I commonly support people with:

— Work burnout and over-responsibility
— People-pleasing and boundary setting
— Anxiety and emotional overwhelm
— Feeling disconnected from what you actually want

Getting started is pretty low pressure. We kick things off with a free 15-minute call to have a chat about what's going on and see if it feels like a good fit. No commitment required.

If you're ready or just curious, you can book a free call or reach out directly below.

If something feels off in your new job, that’s important information.

Burnout starts way earlier than most people realise. And the people most at risk are often the ones working the hardest and saying the least about it.

This isn’t about scaring you, it’s just worth knowing what to look out for so you can get ahead of it before it gets ahead of you.

Your awareness is your biggest protective factor.

When life decides for you, it can feel like all your power just... disappears.

But even in the hardest moments (the ones you didn’t ask for and wouldn’t wish on anyone) there are still choices available to you. They might not be the choices you want. They might all feel heavy. But they’re yours.

Sometimes it’s not about finding the easy path. It’s about figuring out which hard you can live with, and which one actually aligns with who you are and what matters to you.

When you’re starting out in your career, it can feel exciting and motivating to be so involved in what you do. That passion can be a real driving force.
And while that passion is energising, it can be tested when balance starts to slip.

This is something I observe often in young professionals — not because of any personal failing, but because many workplace cultures and systems are structured in ways that don’t always support balance.

Hustle culture is often rewarded. Working through lunch breaks, staying back unpaid, or sacrificing time with loved ones can be framed as signs of dedication and ambition.

It’s rarely black-and-white. There is some truth to the idea that investing more time in your work may support progress. But it’s worth reflecting on the cost of that approach over time.

A sustainable approach — one that supports your wellbeing alongside your goals — is more likely to support the longevity of your career. Sometimes a short-term focus makes sense. Other times, thinking about the life you want to be living in the long-term, and working backwards from there, can be a more useful framework.
