She worked with Gareth Southgate's team during his World Cup tenure. We dive into her powerful book Life Reclaimed , unpacking the concept of “overperformance” — the relentless pursuit of success, validation, and achievement that can quietly lead to burnout, disconnection, and loss of self. Pippa shares how high performers can become trapped in cycles of pressure and identity tied to output, and more importantly, how to break free. This is a deeply reflective conversation about redefining success, reconnecting with what truly matters, and building a life that feels as good on the inside as it looks on the outside. We explore purpose, identity, emotional awareness, and how to move from constant doing… to meaningful being. A powerful episode for anyone striving for more — and wondering if it’s costing them too much. 🌐 Pippa Grange's Book – Life Reclaimed https://amzn.eu/d/0fUAvSm0 🔥 Sponsored By: ☕ Strong Coffee Company — Protein-packed coffee for energy & clarity Code: VANCRUX1 (20% off) https://www.strongcoffeecompany.com 💊 More Labs — Clinically proven hydration & recovery drinks Code: VANCRUX1 (25% off) https://www.morelabs.com 🍬 LiQure Gummies — Electrolytes + vitamins for hangover prevention & recovery Code: VANCRUX1 (20% off) https://www.liqure.com 🔥 Useful Links: 📘 Become a Person of Value by J.S.
