There is a range of unique challenges and pressures that come with being a high-performing professional. With demanding careers and leadership roles come high expectations and constant pressure to perform, often at the price of an individual’s own well-being. And we know, it’s not easy to reach out for help.
An alarming 61% of Australian workers reported experiencing burnout, compared to the global average of 48% – MHFA 2023
That’s why at The Bardo, we focus on creating a safe space where professionals can pause, breathe, and begin to rediscover themselves. We understand that stepping back doesn’t mean stepping away from success; it just means reclaiming the clarity, energy, and resilience you need to sustain it.
The unique needs of high-performing professionals
It’s not always easy balancing a demanding career, family and reputation. The pressure to always be ‘performing’ in all aspects of life can be difficult, and some people feel apprehensive about reaching out for help. That’s why generic rehab centres on the Gold Coast might not always fit, due to their lack of privacy and one-size-fits-all approach.
The cost of ‘pushing through’
What happens when you ignore the signs of burnout or unhealthy coping strategies? Everyone suffers differently, but you could experience strained relationships, a decline in your performance or even health issues. If you’re feeling like this, seeking help early is a sign of strength, not weakness.
