Becoming UnDone® with Dr. Toby Brooks

by Dr. Toby Brooks

Hosted by professor, speaker, and performance & comeback scientist Dr. Toby Brooks (@drtobybrooks), Becoming UnDone® is where high-achievers come to reckon with rock bottom—and rise again. Every week, we explore what happens when life doesn’t go according to plan. Through raw stories, vulnerable insights, and powerful conversations, we dive into the pain of identity loss, the paralysis of burnout, and the transformative power of coming apart.This isn’t just about failure. It’s about what you do next.Whether you’re an executive questioning your purpose, an athlete facing the end, or a leader secretly unraveling, this show is your reminder: the coming apart isn’t the end of the story—it’s the beginning of something greater. If you’ve ever asked yourself, “What in the hell next?”—you’re in the right place.https://linktr.ee/DrTobyBrooks
