Episode 229 with Michael D. Levitt: Overcoming Burnout and Finding Balance
Manage episode 409044065 series 2805411
One of the true hallmarks of a successful entrepreneur is to learn and grow from hard times. My guest today is Michael D. Levitt, a global thought leader on burnout and workplace culture, a sought-after keynote speaker, and executive coach, a published author of several books, and the host of the popular Breakfast Leadership Show podcast. Michael experienced his own 'year of worst case scenarios' in 2009-2010, including a heart attack, job loss, car repossession, and home foreclosure, which led him to explore and address the root causes of his burnout.
Listen in as we discuss the differences between stress and burnout, the societal underuse of employee mental health programs, and the personal and economic pressures contributing to today's burnout crisis. We also talk about practical approaches to combat burnout, emphasizing sleep quality, understanding food intolerances, and the importance of controlling one's internal state rather than external circumstances.
