About this episode
What if burnout wasn’t caused by your job—but by how you relate to it? In this eye-opening episode of The Next Interview, Doland White sits down with Emily Heird, executive coach, licensed therapist, and founder of a high-performance coaching company, to explore the psychological toll of leadership and the science-backed strategies to reverse burnout.
Drawing from 15 years of therapy, leadership, and real-life burnout, Emily shares how high achievers unintentionally create unsustainable conditions by tying their identity to outcomes, neglecting self-care, and over-functioning at work. But it’s not all theory—she walks us through the actual turning point in her life and what shifted everything.
What you'll learn:
• The real root of burnout (hint: it’s not your workload)
• How to rewire your mindset from outcome-obsession to purpose-driven action
• Simple, science-backed ways to reclaim your energy and rebuild your leadership edge
• The power of feedback, trust, and delegation in creating sustainable performance
• The critical difference between therapy and coaching—and why it matters
Emily Heird’s background in psychology and coaching makes her a powerhouse guide for leaders ready to reset and rise. If you’ve ever felt like success on paper didn’t match your inner experience, this one’s for you.
