John Ainsworth is a former CEO of a regulated financial services company, where he led major organisational change under intense pressure and scrutiny. With over two decades of experience in high-stakes leadership roles, John reached the top of his profession-only to find himself facing an internal crisis that success couldn't shield him from.His personal experience of burnout and mental health breakdown became the catalyst for a powerful journey of self-discovery, recovery, and transformation. Now an entrepreneur, speaker, and advocate for mental wellness in leadership, John draws on both his professional expertise and deeply personal story to help others thrive-not just survive-in demanding careers.In Beyond OK, John offers a rare, honest account of what it truly means to lead while struggling inside, and how vulnerability, self-awareness, and psychological tools can help leaders reclaim their health and authenticity. His mission is simple but profound: to break the silence around executive mental health and to show that growth is possible-even after the breaking point.
