Around the time I was 30, I burned out. The short clip above tells my story about what happened, and the lessons I learned.

Those lessons have set me up to live the rest of my life purposefully and intentionally.

To live this way, there's a question that first needs to be answered:

What does success mean to you?

It’s a very personal question. One that only you can answer. 

If you don’t, you can risk burnout.

If you let others define it for you, you risk burnout.

Yet when you clearly define it for yourself, and you truly own it, life shifts. 

Your definition of success becomes the anchor for all your decisions from then on. 

Your efforts become more meaningful. 

Life becomes more fulfilling.

You can have a more meaningful and sustainable impact.

Answering this question takes work. 

Honouring the answer takes even more work.

It’s worth reflecting on. 

And talking about.

I'm sharing these thoughts now because the way we're working isn't working.

Burnout levels are rife. Our organisational and societal systems are under massive strain, and up for reinvention. Something's got to change.

Up for a conversation?

If you're a senior leader who cares about reshaping the forces so we can create more sustainable ways of working and living, I'd love to talk.

In February 2025, I’m hosting a conversation with a small group of like-minded senior leaders to explore the challenges and possibilities.

If that sounds like you, please share your details using this link and I'll send you more information.
