Season 3 | Ep 3 - Joseph Sweeney on how working 7 days a week through lockdown led to severe burnout and the need to take a break! - a podcast by Sean Anderson

In today’s episode I was joined by Joseph (Joe), the Co-Founder and MD of Manners Maclean, an international exec search business based in London and Buckinghamshire.
I was originally going to record today’s episode by myself. I have been feeling stressed and burnout over the past month and I realised that there are so many also experiencing this right now.
However I was delighted to be joined by Joe, a member of The Hoxo Academy since May 1st, who after a number of conversations has shared with me that he has been feeling almost identical to me in the past month.
Like most recruitment owners, Joe has worked hard during the pandemic to keep his business alive, despite so many obstacles.
But Joe took this to extreme levels and decided to work 7 days a week to give his agency the best opportunity moving forward.
With a wife and 4 year old twins in a 3 bedroom house lacking space, this began to break Joe down.
In this episode Joe shares the story of
How he felt working so hard
The signs of burnout
What he did to combat the problem
Tips any recruitment owner can adopt to overcome these challenges

A great guy with such a real and relevant story right now, if you would like to chat to Joe about this further please contact him HERE: https://www.linkedin.com/in/josephsweeneymm/ (https://www.linkedin.com/in/josephsweeneymm/)
