Most leaders think burnout is just “feeling tired” – but that’s like thinking frostbite is just “cold fingers”. In this conversation with Hazel Anderson Turner – business psychologist, mindset coach, and author of Coaching Through Burnout – we break down what burnout actually is, why leaders often miss it in themselves, and how to spot it early before it wipes out your team’s energy, performance, and trust.
Hazel draws on over 15 years of coaching leaders, including front-line NHS managers during the pandemic, to explain how chronic stress changes the way we think, act, and relate to others. We cover the subtle early-warning signs, why our coping mechanisms often accelerate burnout, and the conversations that build trust and resilience long before a crisis hits. If you want practical, human-centred ways to keep yourself and your team in the game – without sacrificing your sanity – this is the episode.
