Author of Rewire | Former Managing Director |
Burnout Recovery Specialist
You've tried wellness programmes, mental health days, and flexible working. Your best leaders are still burning out. The turnover hasn't stopped. Something fundamental is broken.
Your most dedicated people are the ones collapsing. Not because they're weak. Because the system rewards behaviours that destroy them.
Yoga and fruit bowls don't fix structural problems. You can't self-care your way out of a system designed to extract until you break.
Leadership talks about wellbeing whilst rewarding overwork. The disconnect between stated values and lived reality is driving your people away.

Twenty years climbing the corporate ladder taught me how to succeed. Complete burnout taught me why that success was unsustainable. Now I help organisations redesign the systems I once perpetuated.
Recovery taught me what your consultants won't say: resilience training is a plaster on a structural wound. You cannot fix burnout one person at a time when the system creating it remains unchanged.
"You didn't fail. The system did. And the system can be redesigned."
I work with organisations ready to challenge their fundamental assumptions about productivity and success. Not through surface interventions. Through systemic redesign that makes burnout structurally impossible.
This isn't about making people more resilient to broken systems.
It's about building systems that don't break people in the first place.
Whether speaking, facilitating workshops, or coaching individuals and teams, I use the three-phase framework from my book, the same method that's helped hundreds of leaders rebuild without losing their edge.

Understand how your nervous system, beliefs, and identity have been shaped by the system. Begin the rewiring process. Calm the chaos. Create safety.

Build consistency through sustainable habits, nervous system regulation, and emotional boundaries. Systems that hold when pressure returns.

Define your authentic vision. Rebuild confidence. Create a blueprint for sustainable high performance—burnout-proof and purpose-driven.
"This is not therapy. This is not a quick fix. This is a rebuild. Ground-up. Brick-by-brick. From burnout and sabotage to clarity, connection, and self-trust."
"Gary's approach challenged everything we thought we knew about high performance. The frameworks are practical, the insights are uncomfortable, and the results speak for themselves."
"Not just another wellness speaker. Gary has lived this, studied this, and built a methodology that actually works. Our leadership team walked away with tools they're still using six months later."
Companies typically book me for a keynote. From there, we work out how I can help your organisation make lasting change. Whether that's leadership coaching, systemic redesign, or both.
