In this episode of Geordie Pride: Voices from the North East, we chat with Christina Lord, an Energy Leadership Coach, Breathwork Facilitator and Community Host from Cullercoats, North Tyneside.
Originally from Sunderland, Christina shares her journey from the high-pressure world of marketing and branding to building a career dedicated to helping others burn bright without burning out.
Together, we talk about modern-day burnout, the pace of change in today's world, and why so many people - especially women in business - are running on empty. Christina opens up about her own experiences of burnout, grief, and rediscovery, and explains how challenges can become our biggest teachers.
We also dive into the science and soul of breathwork, the importance of energy management, and how community and connection can help us heal, grow, and thrive.
It's an uplifting, down-to-earth chat about finding balance, setting boundaries, and learning to breathe again.
