Are you keen to banish burnout for good?

Burnout-Free Working is written by Dr Richard Duggins—a leading expert and trainer on preventing burnout in high stress jobs, also known as 'The Doctor's Doctor'. In this book he reveals the secrets of his trade for the first time.

With a wealth of proven tools for burnout-free working, Dr Duggins covers all you need to know, including:

- Spotting early signs of burnout
- Steering clear of 'the burnout cliff'
- Tackling 'Keep calm and carry on' culture
- Detoxifying workplace environments
- Dealing with trauma at work
- Moving from Stress to Decompress
- Strategies to support colleagues

Dr Duggins breaks down common burnout myths (it's really not about building resilience!) and encourages us all to shift our thinking away from burnout recovery, to instead living and working in a way that avoids burnout before you even get close.

Thank you to the author. This will save many people who are not aware with the signs or how to prevent burn out. It is simple, direct and full of practical tips. It is full of real direct experiences backed by anecdotes and research. Well worth it and I’m taking tips immediately.

This book is very relatable. It has clear steps to help a person understand where they at in their burnout journey and how to help themselves. It also helps those supporting a person going through burnout to understand what is happening and how they can make changes to help support them.

A very relevant book in today’s working world.

This was so well written. I listened on Audible and it was broken down into well thought out chunks. Lots of brilliant suggestions and the overall theme was really positive. I finished the book feeling like I had options and things would be ok. Would highly recommend

Brilliant to listen to

In this book Dr Richard Duggins highlights burnout is incredibly common, and stresses the importance of looking after yourself before you can look after others.

As a clinician I personally experienced moral injury, and witnessed compassion fatigue in others. This book acknowledges unhelpful strategies and provides techniques to manage life‘s ‘curve balls’.

Importantly for me, now in a management role, Dr Duggins has guided me in how to support my colleagues and staff. I highly recommend this book to anyone working in a high stress environment.
