Todays Podcast features the talented and inspirational Dr Esther Cole. Dr Esther Cole, Clinical Psychologist, is the Early Career Award Winner (2020) for her role in initiating and co-editing the book: "Psychological Therapy for Paediatric Acquired Brain Injury". Dr Cole identifies as a third generation British Jamaican, and the proud mother of three children currently under 8. She is also the Clinical Director of Lifespan Psychology - The Diverse Practice, a group therapy practice for adults, children and families internationally, online and in London, UK.
In this Podcast Dr Cole speaks honestly and openly about her work and most importantly about her own journey as a professional and parent dealing with stress and burnout. She describes how she overcame a traumatic experience of burnout in 2019/20 following working in the NHS, writing a book, raising two children and simultaneously starting her private practice. Dr Cole aims to connect with the audience and her clients by using her own personal challenges and resilience, as well as her professional training and research, to help others overcome similar difficulties. I truly believe that this is a message that will challenge mindsets about work and success, but most importantly help many of us to rethink how we look after our well-being
