Description

Host Paul Spain is joined by Rachel King, founder of Quotient, to dive into the art (and necessity) of working at "human speed." With a background as a civil engineer and expertise in psychology, Rachel unpacks why our obsession with busyness doesn’t equal value, how digital overload and workplace pressures can drive burnout—and, most importantly, practical strategies for leaders and teams to prioritise meaningful work, set boundaries, and thrive without running on empty. Whether you’re a startup founder powering through long hours or part of a corporate team drowning in emails, this episode is packed with relatable stories, actionable tips, and a refreshing perspective on finding real fulfilment and impact at work.
