Georgina Shute on ADHD, Burnout, and Why Self-Awareness Wins
Description
At her breaking point, Georgina Shute realised success had come at the cost of her wellbeing. This is the story of how she rebuilt her career — and her confidence — through self-awareness, compassion, and courage.
In this bold and deeply personal episode of The Sound Leadership Podcast, Dan Boniface and Darren Draper are joined by Georgina Shute—founder of KindTwo, ADHD leadership coach, and creator of the Procrastination Breaker Framework™—to unpack the myths we’ve bought into about performance, burnout, and success.
After 15 years leading in tech while silently struggling with ADHD and burnout, Georgina rebuilt her approach from the ground up. Now she helps overwhelmed leaders ditch the masks, reclaim their energy, and lead in a way that works with their brain—not against it.
💭 This is a conversation for anyone who looks “together” on the outside but feels like they’re quietly coming undone.
Together they discuss:
- The mindset shift that helped Georgina overcome imposter syndrome
- What it really means to lead with self-awareness
- Why kindness is a strategic leadership advantage
- How to support neurodivergent colleagues without overcomplicating things
🎧 If you believe leadership starts with understanding yourself first, this conversation will resonate deeply.
