Beyond the Bucket

A weekly-ish newsletter, with the occasional longer piece.

If you’ve come across my work, you’ll know I often talk about the “stress bucket.”

It’s a simple way of explaining how pressure builds up and why things can start to feel overwhelming.

What I’ve found is this:

Most people don’t just feel stressed because there’s too much to do.

They feel stuck because something about the way they’re working no longer fits.

That’s why I created Beyond the Bucket.

Not just to talk about stress, but to explore what actually sits underneath it.



Insight, perspective and practical ways to approach your work differently.

For when work no longer makes sense in the way it used to.

By signing up to the mailing list, you agree to my privacy policy and consent to receive emails from me. You can unsubscribe at any time.

Inside, you’ll get a mix of insight, perspective and practical thinking:
  • Insight into how stress, pressure and performance actually work
  • Perspective from my own experience working in high-pressure environments
  • Practical ways to approach your work, decisions and energy differently
  • Occasional prompts that help you step back and see things more clearly

No noise. No overwhelm.
Just something thoughtful to come back to each month.


Over time, it helps you:
  • Think more clearly about your work
  • Feel more confident in your decisions
  • Understand what actually works for you now

If work feels different lately, but you can’t quite explain why, this is a good place to start.
