Motivation fuels ambition, but it has a hidden downside: the more passionate you are about your career, the harder it is to switch off after hours. When work follows you home in your head, you don’t recover, leaving you drained the next day. This session reveals why effective recovery is critical and introduces science-backed strategies to quiet your mind, recharge fully, and sustain both performance and wellbeing.

Do you think about work at home, replay difficult conversations, rehash mistakes, worry about presentations, have trouble being present in what you're doing, spend evenings binging shows or scrolling social media? In this session, psychologist and author Guy Winch will reveal the science behind how your mind can get taken over by work and damage your ability to thrive at work and flourish at home. He will illustrate how you can catch these unconscious tendencies (we all have them) and correct them using science based techniques that he developed to help driven people use their mind to overcome the grind.
