Summary

In a high-alert situation such as the Covid-19 pandemic, it can be very easy to become more function driven and task focused when everything is in crisis mode. There is the potential for 'heroic' overworking and burnout, or struggling to find the capacity to address other areas of our lives. In these times, how can we support healthcare professionals to create more balance in their every day? In this episode we are in conversation with coaches Dr Magdalena Bak-Maier and Kathleen Sullivan. Our discussion draws on neuroscience and coaching as we explore some practical approaches to finding balance amidst the ongoing crisis.
