Why do so many high-performing professionals feel compelled to keep working, even when they’re exhausted or no longer under pressure?

In this episode, we explore the deeper causes of work stress, overworking, and anxiety — beyond workload, deadlines, or poor time management. We look at why rest can feel uncomfortable, why switching off feels difficult, and how the mind creates a constant sense of urgency.

Drawing lightly on the principles shared by Syd Banks, this conversation points toward a different understanding of stress, thought, and experience — one that doesn’t rely on fixing habits, setting boundaries, or trying harder to relax.

This isn’t a productivity episode or a burnout solution.
It’s an invitation to see what’s actually creating pressure at work — and how insight alone can begin to change the experience.

French Philosopher Pierre Teilhard De Chardin to confirm said "We are not human beings having a spiritual experience. We are spiritual beings having a human experience" :)
