What does it say about an organisation when their š—²š—»š˜š—¶š—æš—² š˜„š—²š—¹š—¹š—Æš—²š—¶š—»š—“ š˜š—²š—®š—ŗ š—¶š˜€ š—¼š—³š—³ š—¼š—» š—¹š—¼š—»š—“-š˜š—²š—æš—ŗ š˜€š—¶š—°š—ø š—¹š—²š—®š˜ƒš—²?

That's not a trick question.
It's something I came across last week.

Think about that for a moment.
The very people tasked with supporting the health of the workforce are themselves unwell.

This isn't irony.
This is a warning sign.

It shows:
āŒ Stress and burnout are systemic, not individual.
āŒ "Wellbeing" is often reactive - firefighting rather than preventing.
āŒ If the wellbeing team can't stay well, what chance does the wider workforce have?

And yet...the organisation admitted - "š—Ŗš—² š—°š—¼š˜‚š—¹š—± š—±š—¼ š˜„š—¶š˜š—µ š˜„š—µš—®š˜ š˜†š—¼š˜‚ š—¼š—³š—³š—²š—æ."

That's exactly why my work is š—½š—æš—²š˜ƒš—²š—»š˜š—®š˜š—¶š˜ƒš—², š—»š—¼š˜ š—·š˜‚š˜€š˜ š—æš—²š—®š—°š˜š—¶š˜ƒš—².
Because it's not about yoga classes and fruit bowls.
It's about tracking the root causes of burnout.
It's about embedding simple, sustainable strategies - from movement snacks to mindset resets - that keep people well, not just patch them up after they've broken.

So here's the uncomfortable question I'll leave you with:

āž”ļø If your wellbeing team needed rescuing right now, could they rely on the culture and systems you've built...or would they be the first to burn out?

If you're brave enough to ask that question, and ready to act on the answer, š˜š—µš—²š—» š—¹š—²š˜'š˜€ š˜š—®š—¹š—ø.

Drop me a message, and I'll share how I help organisations prevent burnout before it takes hold.

Sat down š—”š—Ÿš—Ÿ day at work...then another 3 hours on the sofa?

No wonder you feel stiff, achy, and drained.

š—§š—µš—² š˜€š—¶š—ŗš—½š—¹š—² š—³š—¶š˜… š—¶š˜€ š˜š—µš—¶š˜€: the next time the TV adverts come on, don't just sit there. Stand up and do some chair squats for just one minute.

Chair squats hit multiple muscle groups, boost calorie burn even at rest, lift your mood, improve sleep, and yep - they'll get you fitter without needing a gym.

That's what I call a š— š—¼š˜ƒš—²š—ŗš—²š—»š˜ š—¦š—»š—®š—°š—ø - tiny bursts that make a massive difference.

One of his team had confided in him that he was struggling with burnout. He shared how exhausted he felt, how it was affecting his work...even his home life.

The leader did the best thing he knew - he listened with empathy. But then he admitted something powerful: "š—œ š—µš—®š—± š—»š—¼ š—¶š—±š—²š—® š—µš—¼š˜„ š˜š—¼ š—®š—°š˜š˜‚š—®š—¹š—¹š˜† š˜€š˜‚š—½š—½š—¼š—æš˜ š—µš—¶š—ŗ."

And that's the reality for so many managers. They care deeply about their people, but when burnout shows up, they freeze. They don't have the tools.

That's where I come in. I give leaders the frameworks, the language, and the confidence to turn "š—œ š—±š—¼š—»'š˜ š—øš—»š—¼š˜„ š˜„š—µš—®š˜ š˜š—¼ š—±š—¼" into "š—œ'š˜ƒš—² š—“š—¼š˜ š˜š—µš—¶š˜€." So their people feel safe, supported, and able to recover.

šŸ‘‰ Here's the question I'll leave you with: If someone in your team came to you tomorrow and said they were burning out...would you know what to do next?

"Because I've been here before. And I know the way out."

I don't just talk about resilience and burnout from the sidelines.

I've been in the hole - burnout, trauma, illness - and found the way out.

Now I help teams do the same with tools that work, stories that connect, and hope that lasts.

On Friday, I had the priviliege of speaking at The Wave in Bristol for the crew at Great Western Air Ambulance Charity. My keynote, Broken to Bionic - How to prevent and recover from burnout, hit home with a group of people who spend their lives saving others.

I opened with this question:
šŸ‘‰ You are the experts at saving lives in a crisis...but who rescues you when it's your turn?

With recent data showing 7 in 10 paramedics are burnt out, the message couldn't be more urgent.

After my talk, several attendees shared privately that they were struggling, or knew someone who was, but didn't know how to help.

That's why I share practical tools to:
āœ… Spot the early warning signs (because the body whispers before it screams).
āœ… Know what to say and do to support someone at risk.
āœ… Build resilience before crisis hits.

Any yes, after the serious work came the fun - we all had a surfing lesson! I managed to stand up 5 times and even mastered a few backflips. 🌊 šŸ„

A massive thank you to Sean Coles for inviting me to deliver my talk. And it was wonderful to share the stage with the brilliant Leanne Spencer, Stephen Rollnick, and Dominique Thompson too.

āž”ļø If you want your team to recognise burnout before it's too late, and to walk away with tools they can use immediately, I'd love to bring Broken to Bionic to your organisation.

What's costing your law firm more: recruitment...or burnout?

Every single lawyer who leaves? That's £36k + gone in lost productivity, recruitment fees, and training.

And you're not just losing money - you're losing billable hours, client trust, and reputation.

Could your toughest moment be your turning point?

I'm absolutely thrilled and slightly blown away to share that on Friday I was selected as one of the final 6 in the West Country Women Awards for š—›š—²š—®š—¹š˜š—µ, š—¦š—¼š—°š—¶š—®š—¹ š—–š—®š—æš—² & š—Ŗš—²š—¹š—¹š—Æš—²š—¶š—»š—“! šŸ’š

Out of thousands of truly inspirational and extraordinary women across the region, to be recognised for the work I do is incredibly humbling and emotional.

My journey into this field wasn't a straight line - it was born from personal adversity, burnout and life-changing health challenges.

But through it all, I found my š—½š˜‚š—æš—½š—¼š˜€š—²: To help others spot burnout before it breaks them. To show you that you can rise from anything. To prove that reinvention isn't reserved for the lucky - it's available to all of us.

Being nominated alongside so many powerhouse women is already a huge honour - but making the final 6? š—œ'š—ŗ š˜€š—½š—²š—²š—°š—µš—¹š—²š˜€š˜€...and that doesn't happen very often. 😊

To everyone who's supported me, believed in me, worked with me, moved with me (literally!), or simply sent kind words my way - š˜š—µš—®š—»š—ø š˜†š—¼š˜‚ š—³š—æš—¼š—ŗ š˜š—µš—² š—Æš—¼š˜š˜š—¼š—ŗ š—¼š—³ š—ŗš˜† š—µš—²š—®š—æš˜.

Whatever happens next, I already feel like a winner. šŸ’«
