What if reaching breaking point isn’t a crisis - but a calling to change?
In this episode recorded live in the Brooklands Radio studio, Michelle is joined by author, coach and former HELLO! magazine Editor-in-Chief Rosie Nixon to discuss her powerful new book, The PRO Method: Three Simple Steps to Reinvent Your Life.
After years at the helm of one of Britain’s best-known magazines, Rosie was diagnosed with psychological exhaustion. Taking time away from a demanding career allowed her to reconsider how she was living and working - and ultimately inspired a major personal and professional reinvention.
Drawing on that experience, her training as a life coach and the science behind navigating change, Rosie created the PRO Method:
Pause – calm the nervous system and create space to reset
Reflect – identify what matters and what may need to change
Organise – turn those discoveries into realistic, achievable plans
Rosie and Michelle talk candidly about burnout, overwhelm and the pressure to keep going - even when our minds and bodies are telling us to stop. They explore why pausing can feel so uncomfortable, how midlife can become an opportunity for reinvention and why meaningful change doesn’t have to mean blowing up your entire life.
Warm, honest and filled with practical advice, this conversation is for anyone who feels exhausted, stuck at a crossroads or ready to find a different way forward.
The PRO Method by Rosie Nixon is out now, published by HarperCollins.
This interview was first broadcast on Brooklands Radio in September 2026.
