Stop Managing Burnout.
Start Understanding It.
Mental health problems are projected to cost the global economy $16 trillion by 2030.
Why aren't we seeing improvement?
I help organisations build emotionally literate workforces through evidence-based psychology frameworks delivered via poetry.
Your workforce has an inbuilt early warning system for dysregulation.
Your workforce has an inbuilt early warning system for dysregulation.
It's called emotions.
"But there's no place for emotions in the workplace..."
Science disagrees.
When emotions are repressed, they show up as:
β Chronic pain & inflammation β More sick days
Β β Increased substance use
Β β Bullying & harassment
Β β Daily stress, anxiety, depression
Β β BurnoutΒ
Emotions aren't the problem.
Emotional illiteracy is.
When people don't know how to identify, talk about, or regulate feelings, they stay stuck in the "Reaction Cycle":
Β π΄ BLAME mode β Fractious relationships, no agency, stuck in resentment
Β π΄ SHAME mode β Paralysis, depression, inability to ask for support
Β π΄ HUSTLE mode β Burnout, perfectionism, exhaustion
I call this the "Frustration Triangle"- and it's costing you in retention, innovation, and performance.
The Fear
"If we give people permission to feel, won't we just get a flood of duvet day requests?"

The Reality:Β
When people learn to navigate emotions as information (not problems to fix), they gain:
β Autonomy over their responses
β Accountability for their impact
β Capacity to handle adversity
β Sustainable high performance
The solution isn't suppression.
It's emotional literacy.
Make your workforce emotionally literate.

Anger = Carbohydrate β Energy to defend yourself, set boundaries
Fear = Protein β Motivation to protect
Gratitude = Fibre β Helps processΒ everythingΒ else, keeps youΒ 'regular'

When people understand emotions as data,Β not disorders, they can:
- Identify what they're feeling (and why)
- Talk about it without shame
- Regulate their responses
- Make better decisions under pressure
- Show up authentically without burning out
- There is a way through.
- I use the power of words and performance combined with clinical psychology to help people make shifts back to their essential selves.
