Burnout and how to manage your nervous system with Dr Claire Plumbly

In this episode, I’m joined by Dr Claire Plumbly, a Clinical Psychologist, EMDR Consultant and founder of Plum Psychology. Claire is also the author of the Amazon bestseller Burnout: How to Manage Your Nervous System Before It Manages You.Together we explore what burnout really is and why so many people find themselves overwhelmed, exhausted and struggling to keep up with the demands of modern life. Claire explains why burnout isn’t simply about working too hard or needing a holiday, but is often connected to how our nervous system responds to prolonged stress.We talk about how burnout develops, the signs to look out for, and why trying to “think” your way out of burnout rarely works. Instead, Claire shares insights into how understanding and regulating your nervous system can help you recover and prevent burnout from taking hold in the first place.Claire also shares her journey into psychology, her experience working in the NHS before setting up her private practice, and why helping people understand trauma, anxiety and stress has become such an important focus of her work.This conversation offers practical insight into recognising burnout, understanding what your body is telling you, and taking steps towards recovery and resilience.To learn more about Dr Claire Plumbly and her work, visit:👉 https://www.plum-psychology.com/To learn more about my work, explore resources, or stay up to date with future episodes, visit:👉 https://wendycastelino.com/If you found this episode helpful, please consider subscribing, leaving a review, or sharing it with someone who might benefit.
