Sophie Anderson

Burnout Prevention Specialist | Creator of the Anderson Model of Burnout Prevention (AMBP™) | Coach, Speaker, Author

Sophie Anderson is a coach, speaker, podcast host, author and burnout prevention specialist who helps professionals explore new ways to work and live, so they can wake up energised about the day ahead and go to bed satisfied with what they have achieved.

After 25 years in high-pressure corporate roles, Sophie understands first-hand what it feels like to juggle demanding workloads, constant pressure and the slow creep toward burnout. Today she supports busy professionals around the world to protect their energy, manage their workload more effectively, and build resilience in ways that are practical and sustainable.

Her work blends science, mindfulness and practical tools to make wellbeing, resilience and productivity achievable in real life - especially for people who are already doing their best and simply need better ways to manage the pressures they face.

Sophie is the creator of The Anderson Model of Burnout Prevention™ (AMBP), an insightful framework that helps people recognise where they are in the progression toward burnout, across the activation, over-functioning, depletion and burnout zones. The model also highlights three prevention pillars for individuals to build resilience and restore balance, moment to moment, before they cross the threshold into burnout, namely awareness, restoration, and lifestyle.

She shares this work through keynotes and workshops for organisations and conferences, as well as coaching packages that can be undertaken privately or sponsored by employers who want to support valued team members through demanding roles, leadership transitions, or periods of sustained pressure.

Sophie particularly enjoys working with organisations that are already doing a lot to support their people. Even in healthy, well-intentioned workplaces, individual challenges, pressures and personal patterns still exist, and not everyone finds it easy to navigate them alone. Coaching and wellbeing education can therefore play an important complementary role, helping individuals develop the self-awareness and self-leadership skills they need to feel and perform better.

People often describe Sophie as warm and authentic, while her work is always practical, and immediately useful. Many clients say they experience clarity and meaningful shifts after a single conversation, coaching session or presentation.

Sophie is currently writing the book “No Time for Burnout” about The Anderson Model of Burnout Prevention™ and its practical application in modern professional life.
