Are you exhausted by the pressure to 'have it all' - even when you're no longer sure what 'all' truly means?
In a culture that rewards going 'above and beyond' - where exhaustion from late-night work is worn like a badge of honour - the pressure to be exceptional frequently leads to a cycle of chronic overperformance and, eventually, burnout.
It's time to stop ignoring your needs to get ahead. In Life. Reclaimed top performance psychologist Pippa Grange draws on her work with elite athletes and executives to liberate you from the pressure of the external scoreboard. Blending real-world stories and the principles of regenerative performance, she arms you with the practical tools to dismantle false goals, reset your priorities and build a foundation for lasting success.
Get ready to stop performing the life you think you should have and start living the one you didn't know was possible.

Reviews / Votes
"An outstanding book. Dr Pippa Grange has spent years mastering performance psychology, imparting her wisdom in this compelling guide for overcoming burnout and restoring sustainable success. Urgent, empowering, and genuinely healing, it shows us a better way to live." -- Dr Joseph Jebelli, author of the Sunday Times bestselling book, The Brain at Rest "Calling all over-performers: this is the book for you. Pippa Grange brilliantly analyses why so many of us are living at too fast a pace, driving at too fast a gear, so that we are losing all the rubber on our tyres. Instead, we can slow down and learn to trust our innate selves and the truth of our unique experience. Easier said than done, but Dr Grange holds us by the hand and teaches us how to do so in this warm, well-researched and inspiring book. There are insights on every page. Read it, and regenerate, one small step at a time." -- Rachel Kelly, Sunday Times bestselling author of Black Rainbow "Most of us have only ever known one way to achieve: go hard, fly high - just don't fall off the edge. Life. Reclaimed changes that story. Pippa Grange shows that overperformance isn't the inevitable cost of excellence, but a distorted way of working - one that leaves us depleted and disappointed.This is a profound and hopeful book, offering a radically healthier vision of success - one that feels as good as it looks. Eye-opening, soul-searching and genuinely life-changing, it will transform how you think about work, ambition and what it really means to thrive." -- Grace Marshall, author of How to be Really Productive and Struggle "This book will profoundly change people's lives for the better." -- Julia Samuel, author of Grief Works "An excellent book that this moment in time is screaming out for - an ecologically minded remedy for chronic performance" -- Dr Rangan Chatterjee "I've always wondered what the world's most respected performance coach would advise her clients but to pull back the curtain and experience her guidance is genuinely stunning. Life. Reclaimed is an antidote to burnout culture, a lifeboat for those lost to stress" -- Bruce Daisley, author of Eat Sleep Work Repeat
