“You Might Be Burnt Out — Even If You Don’t Realise It” - Dr Claire Ashley
Manage episode 475572454 series 2924802
Burnout isn’t just a buzzword — it’s a creeping, physiological and psychological disconnection that’s become all too common in high-achieving cultures. And often, the people most affected are the ones least likely to see it.
In this episode, I’m joined by Dr Clare Ashley — author of A Burnout Doctor and former NHS medic — who knows this terrain from the inside. After her own collapse early in her medical career, Clare began to explore burnout not just as a condition, but as a message.
We explore:
- Why denial is often a hallmark of burnout
- The subtle early signs we tend to ignore
- How purpose, community and autonomy act as protective forces
- Why 20% of meaningful work can shift everything
- How burnout recovery ties in with self-awareness, flow and intention
This is a vital conversation — especially if you’ve been pushing through, wondering why you’re so tired, or feel like something’s been missing.
