Janine van Someren  and I talk about her new book, The Wellbeing Advantage: 7 transformative habits to thrive in work and life. Janine spent years studying human performance in elite sport, and then discovering that all that knowledge couldn't protect her from her own body and mind reaching their limits. Now she works with high-performers, mainly in the corporate world, using wearables and recovery scores every day. And yet, when she's with a client, she works hard to take the numbers out of the room. What matters is the conversation it creates. We talk about what it means that you can be resting and not recovering. We talk about why loving your work might put you more at risk of burnout, not less. And we talk about where recovery can actually happen, including at your desk. There's a brilliant question Janine asks her clients: what were you doing today when you completely lost track of time? That's worth knowing.
