You don’t have to carry burnout alone. The right support can help you breathe again—start here: https://caitdonovan.com/coaching Burnout recovery gets real as Sarah Vosen sits down with an anonymous guest who feels trapped by perfectionism, people-pleasing, and the voice of an inner critic that makes self-compassion feel out of reach. In this episode, she’s trying something different for the podcast: a real-time coaching session. Her guest “Kate” describes how burnout began with constant illness and eventually knocked her flat, leaving her exhausted and uncertain about how to move forward. Years later, Kate still feels caught in a loop of trial and error, trying new practices, hoping for change, and losing faith when nothing seems to last. How do you find the courage to say no before your body forces you to? And how do you begin to quiet the inner critic that insists you’ll never get better? Through thoughtful coaching, Sarah helps Kate see the fear of saying no for what it is: a strategy that once kept her safe but now keeps her stuck. She offers a new way to look at recovery, like a scale that can slowly tip away from self-judgment and toward self-compassion with each small act of courage. Along the way, Kate begins to see how even the tiniest pieces of evidence, moments of asking for help, choosing rest, or protecting her needs, can start to shift the balance. This conversation opens a window into the real work of burnout recovery. It’s messy and slow, but it’s also a practice of rediscovering your voice, setting boundaries that protect your energy, and remembering that even a flicker of hope is proof that change is possible.

Who is standing up for Estate and Letting Agency? - Ep. 2327 10:49

10:49

Is the UK Estate Agency Industry Really Being Represented? Rupert Collingwood Speaks Out Are the organisations meant to support estate and letting agents in the UK truly representing your interests? In this interview, Rupert Collingwood, an experienced London estate agency broker, shares his unfiltered views on why groups like Propertymark and the Home Buying and Selling Group often fall short. He explains how these bodies frequently miss the mark by failing to consult agents properly and by offering commentary long after key legislation like rent reform and stamp duty changes have already taken effect. Rupert also highlights the consequences of being sidelined in important discussions, with government decisions steadily eroding transaction volumes and agent incomes. He questions the value of membership organisations today and challenges whether they genuinely stand up for the industry or simply serve their own interests. If you’re an estate or letting agent feeling unheard or concerned about the future of the property market, this episode is for you.

Why are we putting the Renters Rights Bill before ROPA - Ep. 2321 6:22

7 hari yang lalu6:22

6:22

With the Renters’ Rights Bill dominating the headlines, many in the UK property industry are wondering if the government is missing the point. In this interview, Nicol Nightingale, former letting agent, regional rep and now asset manager, explains why bringing in yet more legislation could do more harm than good. Nicol argues that without first regulating property agents through ROPA, the Renters’ Rights Bill risks piling pressure on an already stretched system without actually protecting tenants. She highlights the worrying reality of unqualified agents and self managing landlords drafting legally binding tenancy agreements with no formal training. Rather than political posturing, what the sector really needs is investment in proper qualifications, stronger enforcement of existing laws, and a serious move towards professionalising the industry. Listen to the full interview to hear why Nicol believes change is needed!…

When Suppliers Bully Estate Agents: What’s Really Happening in UK Property Tech? In this interview, Rupert Collingwood, a no nonsense estate agency broker, pulls no punches about how some prop tech suppliers are squeezing estate agents and letting agents across the UK.

Rupert explains how many tech solutions are created for problems estate agents don’t actually have, yet come with ever increasing fees and complicated contracts. He highlights the frustration agents face when suppliers keep raising costs regardless of the value delivered, and when product changes create extra headaches and expenses. The conversation also dives into why estate agents aren’t standing up for themselves enough, allowing this “bullying” behaviour to continue unchecked. If you’ve ever felt pressured or left behind by your tech suppliers, this episode is worth the listen. Tune in, share your thoughts, and let’s start holding suppliers to account.…

Are Untrained Letting Agents Damaging Our Industry? Too many letting agents are being “trained” by people who don’t really know what they’re doing, and it’s causing real problems. In this interview, Nicol Nightingale, former Propertymark regional exec and now an asset manager in Leicester, shares her first hand experiences of unqualified agents passing on bad habits and misinformation. With over 170 pieces of legislation to navigate, the property industry isn’t one where you can just pick things up as you go along. Nicol explains how even basic legal checks like Right to Rent are being mishandled, not out of laziness, but because no one ever showed agents the correct way to do it. She makes a strong case for mandatory qualifications and proper regulation, arguing that without it, the gap between good agents and bad ones will only get wider. Listen now, then jump into the comments, do you agree with Nicol? Is it time for real change?…

Should you split your Estate Agency fee? - Ep. 2313 8:30

Should You Split Your Estate Agency Fee? Expert Advice from Rupert Collingwood In today’s fiercely competitive UK property market, the question of whether to split your estate agency fee has never been more relevant. Rupert Collingwood, an experienced London broker, explains why charging the right fee and working collaboratively with other agents might be the best way to stand out from the crowd. Over the last two decades, average fees have dropped from 1.6% to around 1%, largely due to commoditisation and the dominance of portals, which have made most agents’ services feel almost identical. Rupert argues that by charging a proper, fair fee, agents can afford to share commissions and work together for the benefit of vendors and buyers alike. He highlights how collaboration can improve the customer experience and build trust, especially when agents put aside ego and focus on what really matters, getting the best outcome for clients.
