69: How to Build Work That Brings You Back to Life After Burnout or Career Change

When my son was four months old, he came with me to a notary’s office in Berlin.

I was setting up a company during Brexit uncertainty, travelling across Europe, growing fast. At the time, the structure of my life could hold that intensity and the work made sense inside it.

Nine years later, everything looks different.

In this episode, I explore what it really takes to build work that brings you back to life after burnout or career change. It all starts with a question that’s often skipped when people plan their next move:

How do you want your work to feel?
And how should it actually support your life?

We talk about why changing jobs often doesn’t stop burnout repeating, how this question becomes a decision point before job searches or business ideas, and why many forms of full-time employment are structurally incompatible with the lives people want to live.

Whether you stay employed, change roles, or decide to build your own work, this episode offers a calmer, more grounded place to start.
