This week on Who We Are Now with Richard and Izzy Hammond unpack burnout. Is it real? Are you just stressed? Dr Tharaka is on the case as Richard and Izzy learn that busyness is NOT a badge of honour, doing a 5-9 before your 9-5 might not be getting you the most of out life, and why you shouldn't use instagram as a barometer for your own personal and professional life.
