In this episode, I sit down with my friend Lara dos Santos, a South-African-born engineering project manager now living in Germany and working in Luxembourg. Lara is a certified Mental Health First Aider, trained to recognize early signs of burnout, stress, and depression in the workplace.

She shares her personal journey of walking through burnout right now—how it affected her career and life, and how her training and a supportive career coach have helped her on the road to recovery.

Lara also offers 3 practical tips you can start today if you’re feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, or on the edge of burnout.

As a Christian, I value this conversation because it shows how we can have healthy, respectful friendships across different beliefs, learning from one another with empathy and love.

This episode will remind you that you’re not alone — and that healing and hope are possible, even if you feel stuck.

And , if you’re ready for more support, more clarity, and real coaching to help you get from stuck to moving—I’d love to walk with you. So Head over to nicolenaicker.com/booking to book your free discovery call, or leave me a message at nicolenaicker.com/contact.
