About this episode

The modern ways of life have drastically affected our work-life balance and stressors, causing many to experience burnout. With 9 in 10 adults in the UK experiencing high or extreme stress in the past year and 1 in 5 needing to take time off work due to poor mental health caused by pressure or stress, we must focus on challenging the causes of chronic stress across society and preventing burnout. 


In this captivating episode, I am joined by the remarkable psychotherapist and best selling author, Anna Mathur, to discover how to conquer stress & anxiety with insights that could transform your life. Join us as we explore the reality of burnout, the secrets of true relaxation, the role of social media in preventing us from switching off and the root causes of explosive emotions. Shedding light on the realities of parenting in the digital age and the mental benefits of sobriety, Anna shares her expertise on many of the modern difficulties we face, offering valuable solutions and Food for Thought.
