Ep 177: Avoiding burnout

In this episode in our 'Thriving at Work' series, Richard is joined by Hazel Anderson-Turner for a discussion all about burnout.

Hazel describes what prompted her to write a book on the topic, as well as her significant experience coaching and training professionals on how to avoid burnout in the UK's National Health Service (NHS).

Richard and Hazel discuss the benefits of using Acceptance and Commitment Coaching methods, the futility of self-blame when it comes to burnout, the key role that organisational context plays and what Hazel hopes readers will take away from her book.

Do get in touch with your questions and comments - you can email us at 'podcast at worklifepsych dot com' or join the online discussion on our Community at worklifepsych.club.

As ever, thanks for listening!
