This weekend is about light breakthrough the darkness. If you're navigating dark times - where everything seems to be going wrong, and nothing you try is working - I've been there. The toll is demotivating, zaps our energy. But the light is there and it is breaking through. “Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of the overcoming of it.” — Helen Keller A weekend to redefine our priorities and reclaim our self-worth: · An identity beyond work · Not personalising work problems · Prioritizing our well-being This weekend is celebrated as a season of new life, joy, and hope Sometimes when all we see is lack – A weekend sparks a new decision to choose a new life, joy, and hope❤️🌤️

I was thinking about what would be possibly of value to others - looking at it from a view of what would have been helpful to my younger self. I silently battled the cognitive overload, emotional volatility, identity fusion, lack of control, hierarchical pressure, chronic stress, and unclear boundaries. But I'm sure I'm not alone in this so I have added a Corporate Survival Guide [https://www.thrivespaceplus.com/resources], covering: - >How to protect your identity when work starts consuming your life >How to reduce cognitive overload and reclaim your focus >How to regulate emotional highs and lows in chaotic environments >How to navigate hierarchy without losing confidence >How to set boundaries that protect your mental health >How to reduce anxiety by closing the responsibility–control gap >How to find meaning even when the work feels repetitive >How to stop comparing yourself to others and trust your own timeline Each chapter includes science‑based explanations, practical tools, and simple daily habits that help stay grounded, resilient, and in control — even when the environment isn’t. Many of us are used to a highly pressurized, highly competitive workplace that can just drain every ounce of us if we let it. Some strategies to help others not get to where I was last year. ❤️🌤️

I posted today on changing my perspective - I've learned so much on my burnout recovery journey. I spoke about shrinking the problems, circle of control and stepping back to look at the bigger picture (e.g., will this matter in 6 months time). I have also changed how I speak to myself - Replace “I am failing” with “This task is challenging.” Replace “I’m not good enough” with “This strategy isn’t working yet.” Check out more in our Classroom tab, under free resources.

If you have woken up: - irritated over overthinking something, - continuously chasing goals but seemingly never achieving anything, - expecting to spend the day alone (possibility because of a work from home day) or - lost / lacking direction in life This is for you. There has been a lot of research backing the PERMA model habits. It is a key output for positive psychology. It is not about pretending to be something that you are not but rather doing certain habits that will generate the positive emotions that help us become more intrinsically motivated and propel us forward towards our desired outcomes. Attached are some examples of PERMA habits you can try. For me, I do meditation, yoga /exercise breaks, gratitude journaling, positive affirmations, set times to connect with people, key actions aligned to my values and purpose each day. I'm interested to hear what works / doesn't work for you.

If you are struggling with the "always on" corporate culture, this is for you. ❤️ I've been there. I posted about one of my travel examples today. The constant pings from my work phone continued late into the night and early in the morning because I was working on demanding global projects. There was little to no tolerance for any wellbeing boundaries. I surrendered into the mold, but I wish I hadn't. Here are some strategies if you are in a similar type of environment. Upon reflection, things I wish I had done better.
