#29: Peter Sutton - Burnout, High Performance, and Learning to Ask for Help

Peter Sutton is an educator, business coach, and lifelong learner who has spent his career helping people move from where they are to where they want to be. But behind the work ethic, high performance, and constant drive was a pattern of pushing through until it became impossible to ignore.In this episode, Peter opens up about the moment he voluntarily checked himself into a mental health unit, the years of burnout that led him there, and what he learned about asking for help, masculinity, boundaries, and the hidden cost of always being the person who can keep going. He reflects on growing up as the son of a senior education leader, teaching around the world, building his own business, and eventually coaching business owners through their own personal and professional challenges.Peter also shares why some of our greatest strengths can become our biggest constraints, why sustainable success requires more than simply working harder, and how his own experiences have shaped a simple mission: to help people move from point A to point B.Enjoy!
