Return... and find one's place among others
Returning to work after an illness or burnout,
It's not just about finding a rhythm or a function.
It is also to return among the others.
And sometimes that's when something gets complicated.
This ninth episode of the Rebond podcast focuses on an often silent issue, but central to the return to work: the place.
The place in the team.
The place in relationships.
The place we occupy... and the one we feel.
Even when "it's okay".
Even when work resumed.
Even when, on paper, everything seems to be in order.
Throughout the episode:
understand why the feeling of having a place does not automatically return,
recognize the invisible relational work that accompanies recovery,
put words to the often underestimated relationship fatigue ,
distinguish between fair adaptation and costly overadaptation,
accept that the place may be different from before,
to explore how to inhabit one's place without fading or hardening.
Rebond invites us to look at the recovery differently:
not as a return to a fixed place,
but as a living, relational, progressive adjustment.
An episode for those who have returned to work...
and who are still looking for where – and how – to land among the others.

The return to work is not a return to the past.
It's a new page to write — together.
Rebond is the podcast of the sustainable, inclusive and profoundly human return to work.
My name is Pascale Opdebeek, I am a professional coach and founder of Rebond Travail & Santé.
Through this podcast, I explore this often invisible but essential moment: that of returning to work after an absence for health reasons-burn-out, long-term illness, life accident...
Each episode offers a time for pause, reflection and putting into words, for those who are going through this transition. We talk about rhythm, fatigue, meaning, place, communication, confidence but also about what helps to hold on over time.
It is a podcast that is aimed at both the people concerned and the professionals who support them.
My intention: to put the human, the nuance and the collective back into the question of work and to open up fairer and more liveable paths of return.
