Chris Chandler-Yates / Former New Zealand Officer / Fight the Burnout Podcast / Knocking Demon Coaching

This week I sit down with former New Zealand Police Officer, Chris Chandler-Yates and discuss all things related to fighting burnout, proper mindset and knowing your "Why".  Chris will be heading to the states in the next few months to help those struggling with burnout reconnect with their "why" and forge ahead with a healthy mindset and skill sets to keep them thriving. A planned motorcycle trip throughout the mid-west and some much needed time connecting with the outdoors is his recipe for personal growth and empowerment . Sit back and give this episode a listen and walk away better for it, Until next week, take care of yourself and each other, God Bless, John http://www.createfromwhy.com/[email protected]://www.linkedin.com/in/chris-chandler-yates?lipi=urn%3Ali%3Apage%3Ad_flagship3_profile_view_base_contact_details%3B9Do30ekgTdGnJnvSMVB99w%3D%3DChris's Bio:I grew up in California, USA and at the age of 13, my parents decided to take my brother and me and sail around the world for five years. We eventually ended up in New Zealand (Auckland is where I now call home) and I thought a career in the NZ Police was what I was cut out for.I wanted to make the world a better place.18 months into the job, a fellow constable was assaulted on the job and I went to multiple suicides where I had to inform their family members, all in a short amount of time. This was when I began to lose touch with myself, my emotions and everything I thought I’d gone into this job for. Instead of making the world a better place, I couldn’t even understand my own world and what was happening to me.What developed was a burning desire to run away from everything and everyone I held close, burnt out with PTSD, depression, anxiety, and paranoia. My mental state kept me barely existing and the job I had so desired and loved had literally made me sick. This was now going on seven years into the job. I realized I had to make a change and sought out the answers to get myself performing and living life on my terms again.Through the help and connection of a tribe, I quickly recognized how powerful it is to develop and truly understand yourself and who you indeed are under all the masks. Only then can you be effective and perform at a level where you are creating a fulfilling life at every turn. Through hours of coaching, science-based studying, personal development, and research not only on myself but with others, I now have a proven method to understand what happiness and health truly look like.Let me show you how peak performance comes through being a master of your physical and mental self. Create a life where you can help others, be a better leader, and be fulfilled no matter what your journey. Being prepared for what the future can throw at you physically and emotionally allows you to stay in the moment and enjoy every day to its fullest. Let me give you the knowledge and let's create that future of your dreams.Thank you for taking the time to give this podcast a listen.
