Healthy Mind, Healthy Life

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Garrett Wood—founder of Gnosis Therapy, certified clinical hypnotherapist, and executive well-being coach—for a direct conversation about burnout, high performance, and what it really takes to thrive. Garrett reveals why burnout isn't just about bad time management and how the real problem lies in emotional suppression, perfectionist conditioning, and a lack of body-based well-being. From sleep and movement to nervous system regulation and hypnotherapy, this episode challenges the “grind culture” and provides powerful insights for leaders who want to stay aligned while succeeding. It’s a wake-up call for any high achiever stuck in survival mode.

Key Takeaways:

• Burnout is not a personal failure—it’s a symptom of misalignment and cultural dysfunction.

• Most high achievers overlook the basics: sleep, movement, and nutrition. These are non-negotiables, not luxuries.

• Emotional suppression in high-pressure environments leads to nervous system overload and chronic stress.

• True well-being requires tuning in, not toughing up.

• Mindset alone is not enough; deep healing requires subconscious work and body-based support.

• Leadership improves when emotional regulation is prioritized—your energy impacts everyone around you.
