Life Reclaimed with Pippa Grange

Life Reclaimed with Pippa Grange

Author: brucedaisley.com April 2, 2026 Duration: 39:46

A return interview with Dr Pippa Grange, a performance ("regenerative") psychologist who has worked with the England men's football team and who has earned the admiration of Brene Brown.

I'm always excited to hear from the likes of Pippa, elite practioners who have earned the respect of the most respected high performers in the world.


Pippa has a new book out, Life Reclaimed, which is a reflection on burnout, the need for overperformance and how to achieve balance in life. It's partly informed by her work with some of the most talented people in the world and certainly bears the trace of her own experiences with burnout.


She also previews the BBC TV adaptation of Dear England featuring a character based on her.
