About the host
I'm Chris Wilson, founder of Where I'm At. I built this platform from lived experience after burnout changed my work, my confidence, my health, and my sense of direction more than I expected. This podcast is here to help people feel less alone, put words to what they are going through, and find out what a more honest way forward might look like.
Read my story →I am always open to thoughtful conversations with people whose work, experience, or story connects to burnout, recovery, career change, identity, or what comes after a major professional shift. The conversations that resonate most are honest ones: people who are still figuring things out, not just those who have arrived at a tidy answer.
Episodes run between 30 and 60 minutes and are recorded remotely. The focus is the human experience, not credentials or job titles.
Get in touchbiz@whereimatcommunity.com: tell me a little about who you are and why you think the conversation would be useful for the WIA community.
Are you a coach, therapist, educator, or facilitator with work to contribute? The REINVENT Partners pathway is the better door.
