  • Burnout Series: Matt Adamson
    Jan 26 2026

    Welcome to the A Bit Of A Boost Burnout Series!

    This is a topic I've explored on the podcast before, and one that comes up regularly in coaching sessions, workshops and conversations with high performing professionals.

    What's become clear is that it doesn't just suddenly hit you. It creeps up, gets normalised and isn't always easy to spot until it's too late.

    In this series I'm sharing real conversations with people who've experienced burnout firsthand.

    Not the theories or frameworks, but the personal stories of what happened.

    How it felt, what was going on at the time, the contributing factors, and the signs that were missed, that in hindsight seem so obvious.

    We also explore what people learned from the experience, and the changes they made to avoid ending up in the same place again.

    You may recognise yourself in parts of these stories. Either because they echo your own experience, or reflect something you're going through right now.

    My final guest in this series is Matt Adamson, now a career coach after a 20 year career in banking.

    In this conversation, Matt shares his personal experience of burnout - and how some of his tendencies to seek validation and positive feedback lead to unsustainable self-expectations and work practices.
