Burnout in business is something we hear about all the time, but do you actually know what it really is, and how to recognise it before it takes hold?
In this episode, I’m joined by Tamrin Dicks, who helps business owners make more money, keep more cash in the bank, and create more time to actually enjoy their lives. After experiencing burnout herself more than once, Tamrin now works with business owners to help them avoid it, or recover from it if they’re already there.
We talk about what burnout in business really means, and how it’s very different from just feeling stressed, busy, or tired. This was something I personally found really eye-opening, and I think you will too.
If you’ve ever felt constantly exhausted, overwhelmed, or like you’ve lost the enjoyment in your business, this episode will really resonate. And even if you’re not feeling that way right now, it’s an important conversation to help you spot the signs early, both in yourself and in others.

Free call for Amazon Sellers
I’m running a free call on 6 May for anyone selling on Amazon (or planning to) who’d like some practical support and a chance to talk things through together.
It’ll be very relaxed - a mix of updates from me on how best to get Amazon reviews, Q&A and discussion. It’s fine to come along and chat, or to just sit back and listen.
I’d love to see you there if you’re able to join.
