Workplace Stress Is Real. But Burnout Is NOT Inevitable.
Empower your teams with science-backed talks and workshops that build resilience and create sustainable well-being.
Led by Chartered Psychologist, Dr Peter Olusoga, Eighty Percent Mental delivers engaging, evidence-based sessions that help organisations prevent burnout, manage stress, and foster long-term, sustainable workplace well-being.

Well-being isn’t just a personal issue – it’s a performance issue. Starting out as a performance psychology podcast, Eighty Percent Mental was founded by Chartered Psychologist and university lecturer, Dr Peter Olusoga.
Now, Eighty Percent Mental specialises in delivering engaging, science-informed talks, workshops, and well-being programmes that help individuals and teams to deal with stress before it leads to burnout.
Whether you’re a business, sports organisation, or university, Pete tailors every session to your team’s unique challenges – combining psychology, experience, and real-world tools that stick.
“It’s not about bubble baths and breathing apps. It’s about sustainable well-being that works in high-pressure environments.”
Pete brings experience as a psychologist, researcher, and consultant to engaging talks on stress, burnout, and well-being. This isn’t “insta-wellness.” Instead Pete brings science and research to life in an accessible and entertaining style.
Pete has delivered talks and workshops for clients including Microsoft, Deloitte, the LMA, UK Sport, The FA, and Sporting Chance. He has also hosted and participated in psychology and well-being events at Hay Festival, Also Festival, and Cheltenham Science Festival.


Launched in 2020, the Eighty Percent Mental podcast is for anyone interested in psychology and the vital role that the mind plays in performance, sport, health, and well-being.
Covering topics such as identity, mindfulness, anxiety, and burnout, Dr Olusoga, invites expert guests to discuss how understanding our own psychology can support elite performance and sustainable well-being in both work and life.

Pete started writing the performance psychology blog way back in 2012 after watching GB Basketball underperform at the London Olympics.
Here you’ll find articles on various topics like stress in high performance sport, how to harness mindfulness, managing the weight of expectation, and preparing effectively for the big moments.
