In this episode, Jo Hooper shares what happened when relentless ambition and work addiction led to two breakdowns. We talk about the difference between burnout and breakdown, the warning signs Jo missed, and what recovery has looked like for her. We also get into boundaries, self-worth, and how Jo has rethought what success means.

This is a must-listen if you’re the person who keeps saying “I’ll slow down after this...” … then somehow there’s always a next thing to do.
