Burnout isn’t a personal failure. It’s a wake-up call.

This global epidemic is not merely a case of working too hard or feeling physically exhausted for an extended period of time. According to physician, executive coach, and speaker Neha Sangwan―an expert empowering corporate leaders and organizational teams to excel under pressure―burnout is due to prolonged stress and an ongoing net drain of energy on one or more of five levels: physical, mental, emotional, social, and spiritual. When we burn out, our productivity suffers, our health declines, and we’re more reactive in our relationships. Not having the resources to handle challenging circumstances, address conflict, or maintain healthy boundaries worsens stress and dysfunction in our professional and personal lives.

In this book, Dr. Sangwan explains in simple terms the overwhelming experience of burnout, and offers an awareness prescription that helps you determine on which of the five levels―physical, mental, emotional, social, or spiritual―burnout is occurring for you. Once you identify your biggest energy drains, she equips you with powerful tools that enable you to replenish your energy and take simple, practical steps toward healing. Along the way, you’ll expand your awareness, elevate your mindset, communicate with clarity, and align your decision-making with what matters most. When you understand how to identify and heal burnout, you’ll have the power to reconnect to yourself, your colleagues, your community, and the meaning of your work in a new and profound way.

Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover

“A beautiful guide to recovery, which we all need now.”
—Mark Hyman, MD, Senior Advisor at Cleveland Clinic Center for Functional Medicine, Host of The Doctor’s Farmacy, and #1 New York Times bestselling author

“Neha not only knows the symptoms, she also has risen to the challenge of dealing with one of burnout’s most intimate causes: the inability of so many of us to recognize what is happening to us and to take charge of ourselves. Step by step, she helps us to become aware of the hallmarks of burnout—physical and emotional exhaustion, depression and anger, cynicism and indifference—and she shows us how to regard these challenges as opportunities to recognize, embrace, and grow through and beyond.” 
—James S. Gordon, MD, founder and CEO of The Center for Mind-Body Medicine and author of Transforming Trauma: The Path to Hope and Healing

“Dr. Sangwan combines the science of medicine, the practicality of an engineer, and the heart of a healer to simplify the global epidemic of burnout. She provides a comprehensive tool kit to heal our mental health epidemic. That said, this book is way more than a tool kit. It is a way of being more alive. Powered by Me is a potent prescription for what ails us in our chaotic world of corporate burnout. It's a must-read for both leaders of today and tomorrow.”
—Robert J. Anderson, creator of The Leadership Circle Profile, cofounder of Leadership Circle, and coauthor of Mastering Leadership and Scaling Leadership

“Brimming with actionable guidance, this is an important read for all of us in today’s busy world. Neha shares her story with honesty and thoughtfulness, inviting us to learn and grow alongside her. Whether you are struggling with burnout at work or at home, or just looking to lead a happier, healthier life, this book will help you heal yourself from the inside out.”
—Kip Tindell, cofounder of Container Store

“Neha has written a beautiful guide to help us remove the internal roadblocks keeping us from experiencing the true joy and beauty in life and knowing that we matter. This book is essential reading for us all, especially for those who accept the responsibility of leadership and want to bring their full selves to be present to those within their span of care.”
—Bob Chapman, CEO of Barry-Wehmiller and author of Everybody Matters: The Extraordinary Power of Caring for Your People Like Family

“In a rapidly evolving world, Dr. Neha’s understanding of medical, human, and societal drivers of burnout in our world is spot on. She offers her own experience with burnout with authenticity and vulnerability that is seldom displayed. As entertaining as it is informative, Powered by Me provides practical tools to empower us to take charge of our own physical, mental, emotional, social, and spiritual health. This is a truly amazing book.”
—Gervase Warner, President and Group CEO of Massy Holdings and Chairman of CARICOM Private Sector Organization

Her unique blend of medical expertise, storytelling, and practical wisdom makes her teachings impactful for people from all walks of life.

—Jo Riley, cofounder and CEO of Censia

“As with everything Dr. Neha tackles, she combines the structured thinking of an engineer with the insights and intelligence of a medical doctor to provide a uniquely holistic and actionable prescription for identifying and healing burnout. Her stories make it relatable and interesting. Every person can benefit from her work.”
—Christine Heckart, founder and CEO of XAPA World, Inc.

“In the battle against burnout, Powered by Me is the practical tool leaders, organizations, and communities have been searching for. Given Dr. Neha’s diverse background as an engineer, medical doctor, and executive coach, she is able to uniquely diagnose what’s draining your energy and getting in the way of living a productive and meaningful life.” 
—Christa Quarles, CEO of Alludo

“Neha’s unique methodology combines physical science, universal healing, and practical tools to transform behavior and heal burnout. Her personal guidance has been invaluable to me, my executive team, and my company. Through powerful mindset shifts, profound self-care techniques, and personal accountability, she catalyzes women to thrive in our twenty-first-century world. Dr. Neha will awaken you to your personal power—and then empower you to live it!”
—Jayne Millard, Executive Chairman of Turtle & Hughes

“Unlike traditional cookie-cutter solutions to burnout, Dr. Neha Sangwan offers practical and measurable tools to increase self-awareness, solidify critical listening and communication skills, and inspire individuals to build unity and respect.”
—Ken Yanagisawa, MD, FACS, President of American Academy of Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery
 
“With her background as an engineer, a physician and an executive coach, Dr. Neha Sangwan possesses strong expertise in understanding systems, processes, and people. Her intimate knowledge of healthcare barriers and stressors that lead to physician burnout uniquely position her to offer sage advice to leaders and emerging leaders. Her impressive workshops and keynote speeches inspire people to make changes that lead to wellness and resilience in the workplace. I fully endorse her outstanding work in this space.”
—Carol R. Bradford, MD, MS, FACS, Dean of The Ohio State University College of Medicine and VP for Health Sciences at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center

“We accept burnout as the natural byproduct of our sense of responsibility, work ethic, and our commitment to others. Dr. Sangwan teaches us to question the inevitability of burnout and shares a powerful plan for both prevention and recovery. Neha provides insight, relatable examples, and practical advice to elevate our commitment to ourselves, feel more joy, and increase our impact.”
—Susan Sobbott, former President of Global Commercial Services at American Express

“Neha was instrumental in helping me recover from burnout. She combines a laser-like focus on hearing what you are saying with her wide knowledge and deep experience to produce actionable insights and results.”
—Theresa Gattung, Chair of Global Women and former CEO of Telecom New Zealand

“Powered by Me is exactly the book we need at this time. The burnout epidemic is at an all-time high and in this step-by-step guide, Neha teaches us to recognize burnout symptoms and create sustained recovery to build a healthier, happier you. Dr. Sangwan’s insights and case studies make the material accessible and actionable. If you want to experience more joy and less exhaustion, this is the book for you!”
—Terri Cole, bestselling author of Boundary Boss: The Essential Guide to Talk True, Be Seen, and (Finally) Live Free

“Powered by Me is a remarkable and timely guide to awareness, prevention, and healing of burnout by strengthening your energy across physical, mental, emotional, social, and spiritual levels. This reflects Neha’s unique combined experience as an engineer, medical doctor, and communication expert, as well as her authenticity and passion to unite, heal, and elevate the world.

Reviewed in the United States on September 26, 2023

I have been an Emergency Physician for over 20 years. Burnout has been a buzz word for quite some time but resources for recovery were less than helpful! As the complexities of work, childcare, and then the Covid pandemic impacted me, I found myself beyond burnt out. Then Neha invited me to participate in the book club for _Powered By Me_. Was it serendipity that Neha’s wisdom, experience, and guidance found me in that space? With her unique blend of science, storytelling, and skill- building, Neha provides a path back from burnout. I found this book so impactful that I have purchased it for cousins just starting out in healthcare, as well as others I love. Being able to share Neha’s experience and wisdom with them is priceless.

Dr. Sangwan's incredible, groundbreaking book is definitely for you -- even if you're not sure if you're burned out! The thing she explains is that we are so very adept at pushing through burnout because we overlook our body's signals telling us we when we are. And the information in this important book is so warmly delivered (with her own personal journey of being a burned out physician) and so packed with wonderfully helpful and healing information about the vital body-mind connection -- I really can not recommend this fabulous life-healing book enough!!
