Bringing psychology to life - with science, compassion and creativity
Available 26th February 2026
The Anti-Burnout Book
A few years ago, I found myself completely burnt out. I knew the theory - but living it was something else entirely. That experience taught me what it really means to stop, rest and rebuild.
I wrote this book in the hope that it helps you feel less alone, and gives you simple, science-based tools to understand, prevent and recover from burnout.
It’s a warm and practical companion to help you reconnect with yourself, protect your energy and rediscover what matters most.
