Turning My Worst Times Into Positive Action

I really hope my book helps you thrive and live the fulfilled life you deserve. It is based on my experience as a leader in big business, as a qualified health professional, as a coach to stressed and exhausted high achievers, alongside my personal experience of stress and burnout.

We know that stress is having an impact on individuals and therefore on teams and organisations. But, when individuals thrive in all aspects of their lives, everyone wins. In this book I share what makes it increasingly likely for you to achieve that dream, avoiding any pitfalls and false expectations, and making it real and pragmatic amidst our super busy lives.

Book Reviews

Already feeling the positive impact

“I found Deborah’s book so inspiring, but even more than that, it’s actually got me to do things in my life and work differently and I’m already feeling the positive impact. I love the practical advice – it’s not overwhelming – sometimes it’s the small things that can make a big difference. Like making sure I understand what nourishes me. Simple things like drinking more water to keep hydrated are actually achievable! But it’s also helped me tackle some of my bigger challenges…learning how to say ‘no’ and stop my incessant people-pleasing. Now I understand more about what stress is and how it impacts my body and mind, it makes saying ‘no’ so much easier. Thank you!” – Helen

Engaging and thought provoking

“Have it All Without Burning Out is an absolute must read for anyone who finds themselves feeling overwhelmed and suffering from ongoing stress to the point where they are running on empty and have lost their zest for life. Having experienced stress and burnout first-hand as a senior business leader, Deborah’s honest and empathetic style of writing makes this an engaging and thought provoking read and the genuine pleasure she takes in helping others to rediscover daily enjoyment leaps off the page.” – Sandra

A huge array of readily actionable ideas

“Deborah guides the reader on their own journey helping them understand what stress means for them personally, the importance of building resilience and how to become a more resilient person. Yet what really sets this book apart is that rather than presenting a one-size-fits-all solution, the reader is offered a huge array of readily actionable ideas that can be immediately embarked upon. And because Deborah has lived through it, the ideas are put forward with time-pressed, exhausted people in mind. It really is a step-by-step guide to avoiding burnout.” – Sandra

It really hits home

“So much is packed into this insightful small book. Right from the start Deborah bares her soul by recalling her decline into burnout and the devastating impact this had on her mind and body. It really hits home and makes you think “Crikey! This could be me if I’m not careful.” Deborah doesn’t promise a magic formula, just good, honest, and easily achievable steps to encourage you to sit back and explore what’s really important in your life and what brings you real joy. I’d recommend making good use of the worksheets that are also available – you might be surprised by your own answers. What have you got to lose? You’ll wish you had read it earlier.” – Lynne

Insightful and inspiring

“Incredibly insightful and inspiring. Deborah has an ability to connect easily with her reader and her own experiences both in the work place and with burn-out itself add authenticity and a warmth that really resonates.” – Alison

Fantastically readable

“This is a fantastically readable book full of wisdom and inspiring ways to reduce stress and increase our moments of joy. Everyone should read this. Deborah has a skill for succinctly advising on a range of issues. I found the advice on stress, sleep, joy and balance very useful. The book is peppered with great phrases to get us thinking; my favourite being “mood hoover “. A great read.” – Lyn

Incredibly relatable

“Such a well written book and such an easy read. I found myself saying “oh my god it’s me, I feel/ have felt like this”. It’s so incredibly relatable and has really helped me to reduce the symptoms of burnout which is such a common occurrence in everyday life. Thanks so much Deb, you have really helped me !!” – Vicky

A really useful and practical guide

“An inspiring read. This isn’t hollow theory but based on Deborah’s own experience of stress & burn out which makes this a really useful & practical guide. Packed full of simple & effective tools & approaches, this is a must-read.” – Anon. Amazon review.

Gem of a book

“I can highly recommend this self-help book. The book is well written and takes the reader on a thought-provoking personal journey. In a fast-paced world of technology it is all too easy to get trapped like a hamster on a wheel, driving on to the point of exhaustion and losing sight of the goals and dreams many of us set out to achieve. This little gem of a book helps the reader understand how to build resilience, make small changes that can help them live their “best life”, one where they can experience joy, happiness and fulfilment each day. Written in easy to understand language, the book has lots of really useful tips and practical ideas on how to nourish the mind and body that can be quickly and easily incorporated into daily routines.” – Anon.

Join my Facebook community

I have the pleasure of hosting a friendly and supportive community on Facebook called 'Overachievers & The Imposter'.

Just like the title suggests this is a group for those people who identify as an overachiever, are likely dealing with imposter syndrome, and have become a master at hiding the secret struggle that tends to accompany all that.

Such as ... people pleasing, perfectionism, overthinking, overworking, over-delivering ... and feeling exhausted and as a result. If that speaks to you, then this group is a good place to hang out.
