From Burnout to Radiance – Gifty Enright joins The Tribe

Dear Tribe,
Today’s episode is a powerful one.
Gifty Enright—international speaker, author, coach, and mother—is in the house.
Once a high-performing corporate consultant, Gifty hit a wall. Burnout forced her to stop, reflect, and rebuild. What emerged is a woman who now helps others reclaim their health, balance, and purpose—with a mix of Western science, Eastern philosophy, and African wisdom.
She’s the author of Octopus on a Treadmill, a refreshingly honest and research-backed guide for working mothers who feel like they’re doing everything—except taking care of themselves.
In this episode, we talk about:
- Her journey from Ghana to the UK—and what shaped her worldview
- The breaking point in her career and how she found the way back
- Why emotional bandwidth starts in the body
- The shift from equality to equity in the workplace
- The power of showing up—and how she does it with such radiant energy
- How mothers can release guilt, prioritize self-care, and pass on strength
- The African flavor she brings into her wellness framework
- Her concept of a productive workforce that every leader should hear
Gifty is sharp, inspiring, and real. This conversation is full of insights not just for mothers, but for anyone who’s ever felt stuck on life’s treadmill.
