Welcome to all my new subscribers and my 5200 loyal readers who have been with me for the past 20 years.

Overwhelmed and Over Worked?

Here’s the tonic to stop the burnout

Greetings!


What do you buy for the workaholic in your life? A holiday or a lottery ticket might do it. Even a facial to lift those drooping eyes and tired looking faces might offer some surface satisfaction. 


With one in twenty now reportedly working over 60 hours per week it’s not surprising GP’s have waiting lists of folk signing off sick and burnout becoming a reality for many.


Taking work home, getting up earlier, working weekends – you are on a runaway train with no station in sight. Relationships feel the strain, sleep becomes a distant memory and life feels altogether overwhelming and joyless.


Let me introduce you to coach Paul Bridel, one of our Pure Coaching Academy graduates, who specializes in helping people heading for burnout.  Paul has “been there” himself and he shares his story along with many tools and techniques in his new book What’s Wrong With Me? – A survival guide for burnt out project managers and other professionals.  Hear Paul’s story here. It’s great:

Have you booked your place yet?


If you have been sitting on the fence or are coaching curious, then join us on the 9th or 10th of January for a brand new offering from Pure Coaching Academy.  


Few things compare to the natural high of helping others. 

Being a conduit of change where you have motivated, inspired and steered a new course for someone’s life is a joy that few believe can also be a career.


Maybe you have what it takes already. You get a genuine kick out of helping others, are a natural problem solver for friends and are the wise one who sees the potential in others. It may seem daunting and you don’t know where to start but there is a very clear and simple path ahead.
