Lydia Wild is a coach and wellbeing advocate specialising in helping women and non-binary people reconnect with a life they love rather than living on autopilot with a one way ticket to burnout. After experiencing her own spectacular work-induced burnout in 2020, Lydia spent time recovering, reconnecting with herself and redirecting her path towards something she felt more aligned with - a slower pace of life, better balance and a lot less caring about societal expectations. She is now passionate about helping others do the same.
