Feeling exhausted from consulting or another high-pressure career? You’re not alone.
In this episode of Shameless Careers, I speak with Daphne Chung - LBS MBA graduate turned executive coach - about her journey from consulting burnout to building a thriving coaching practice.
We talk about how burnout can happen even when you enjoy your work, the link between perfectionism and exhaustion, early warning signs like poor sleep and neglected self-care, and why learning “good enough” can protect your health without limiting success.
You’ll also hear tips on making a career pivot, finding fulfillment in your work, and creating psychological safety in the workplace.
If you’re:
- A consultant feeling burned out
- A high achiever in finance, law, tech, or other high-pressure industries
- Or simply rethinking your definition of success...
... this conversation will help you recognise burnout early and take practical steps toward recovery and career satisfaction.
