Bricks & Mortar: Developing your career in a sustainable way

“I remember walking out of my APC the first time around and phoning my dad. I couldn’t focus. I couldn’t think about where I was. In that moment I knew that I needed to sort myself out and get some help.”

Natasha Collins had been working at a frenetic pace – juggling the demands of a busy job in asset management with the academic rigor of her APC and a lively social life – when she began to experience symptoms of burnout.

A call to LionHeart helped her to regain her perspective and to make the necessary adjustments to her work / life balance. She now works as an ambassador for the charity, alongside managing a property investment business and lecturing for UCEM.

Hear her discuss the highs and lows of her career in property and how, ultimately, that telephone call was transformative in helping her to adopt a more sustainable approach to work.
