Burnout Isn’t the End — It’s the Turning Point with David Vioque

What happens when your body breaks down before your mind admits you’re burnt out?



This week I’m joined by David Vioque — a recovering investment banker who had every marker of success on paper, but inside was facing what he calls “spiritual burnout.”

When his health started to collapse — caffeine stopped working, exercise gave immediate exhaustion — he did what most of us only dream of: he walked away.

David trekked the Camino de Santiago, sat in silence with monks in Nepal, and built a toolkit for reconnection and purpose.

Now, he’s the co-founder of Unbound, a reimagined health space in Shoreditch that blends testing, conversation, and community into something radically more human for preventative health & longevity.

In this episode we get into:

✨ What it really means to face spiritual burnout

✨ Why silence and solitude can be medicine for clarity

✨ How to find balance in “the extreme middle” of health
