Peak Output, Rock Bottom Energy. The Hidden Cost of High-Performing at Work.

Peak Output. Rock Bottom Energy. Burnout, stress & the high-performer trap. 🔥 A must-listen episode with Javed Bobat, mental health first aider and fellow Finance recruitment expert, diving into the unseen toll of high-functioning burnout - especially in fast-paced industries like finance and consulting.

If you're a finance leader, high-performer, or founder who’s running at 100% on 10% battery - this episode is for you. Let’s stop calling it resilience when it’s really survival mode.
