Working While Sick: Why High Performers Feel Stress and Anxiety About Rest
Why do high performers feel guilty resting when they’re sick?
In this episode, I explore why ambitious professionals struggle with anxiety about taking time off work — even when their body clearly needs recovery. For many leaders and high achievers, work stress doesn’t stop when illness starts. Rest can feel unsafe, unproductive, or like falling behind.
We look at why working while sick has become normalised, how identity and responsibility fuel stress, and why your nervous system struggles to switch off.
If you’re a driven professional who finds it hard to rest without guilt, this episode explains what’s really happening — and how to respond differently.
