EP017 | Burnout Recovery, Finding Balance & Customising Your Life, with Sarah Allison

Dream Chasers

In this episode:

Have you ever experienced burnout?

How did it look and feel like for you? Did you know that it can be experienced differently – person to person?

I have invited my old work colleague and friend, Sarah Allison, to come and share her burnout and recovery story, which saw her redefine what her life and work looked like in major ways.

Sarah has had a rich and varied career, working for global companies to charities and start-ups, mostly in the technology and environmental sectors.

But, after experiencing serious health burn out, she has customised the way she lives and works, and has forged her own incredible path – one that sees her living half the year in the UK, and the other half in India, and mixing corporate consultancy work with holistic healing work through shiatsu and qigong.

In this episode you will hear Sarah talk about what the burnout catalyst was for her, and what it taught her about what she needed and wanted. We chat about her portfolio career and how she manages it, and how she found the courage to follow her own path, despite the negative societal connotation that she’s living like a “hippy”.

Come join us. Sarah’s story is fascinating.

Sarah Allison is part corporate geek, part holistic health worker who has taken seemingly radical steps to find balance in her life - steps that she believes anyone can take.

She now lives between a sleepy village in southern England and the jungles of tropical Goa.

In 2019, she left a 15-year corporate PR career working with some of the world's largest technology companies, to pursue a new chapter that saw her recover from burnout, find her own rhythm and live through the global pause for 2.5 years in India.

During this time, her holistic Practitioner work flourished and she re-defined the ingredients for health and happiness, on her terms. She finds peace and fulfilment in nature, and now pursues work that nourishes her mind, energy and soul.
