Writer on Mental Health in the Workplace,
Burnout & Workaholism
Born in Brazil and living in the Netherlands since 2017, I write, research and share healthier ways of working.
When facing Burnout with all its symptoms and consequences, twice, I radically changed my life and today I help other people, through my texts, videos, social networks and this support platform, to repurpose work and their relationships with it.
When writing and producing content from my own experience with anxiety, depression and panic caused by Burnout, my purpose is to raise awareness about mental health at work and Burnout syndrome, inspiring people to prioritise compassion as a tool for individual transformation and social.
