Burnout: The Warning Signs You Shouldn’t Ignore

Are we living too fast? Why do so many of us feel constantly exhausted, overwhelmed, and unable to switch off? Cherry Healey and Dr Amir Khan tackle something so many of us are quietly struggling with... burnout! Cherry opens up about her own experience of severe burnout in her 30s, sharing the warning signs she missed, the moment she realised something was seriously wrong, and the lifestyle changes that helped her recover. Dr Amir tells us what’s happening inside the body during burnout, - rising cortisol and chronic inflammation, to poor sleep, low mood, anxiety, and exhaustion, and the key symptoms to watch out for before you hit breaking point. 💬 Got a question?
