827 burnout, the energy crisis & your energy type with Dr Amantha Imber

In this episode Shell is joined by organisational psychologist Dr Amantha Imber, who shares about how she hit rock bottom in 2024 in the depths of burnout. Her new book, The Energy Game provides anyone experiencing burnout with a practical science-backed guide for regaining energy bit by bit without needing to completely press pause on life. They chat about:

👉🏼 the "getting hit by a bus" fantasy

👉🏽 Amantha's burnout and the warning signs she missed

👉🏾 the "push through" paradox many face when they're exhausted

👉🏿 what's causing an energy crisis in our society?

👉🏻 the 4 energy types, which one are you?
