This week's episode

Why you can't stop over-working with Malissa Clark

"The culture is set by the worst behavior that is tolerated."

– malissa clark

There are only 2 episodes left in the season and it has been an incredible journey to have in-depth, nuanced and amazing conversations with such brilliant experts and leaders. Let me know what episode has been your favorite!

Today, I’m thrilled to be joined by

  • A professor of psychology and Department Head at the University of Georgia
  • Author of Never Not Working: Why the Always-On Culture Is Bad for Business—and How to Fix It.
  • One of the leading researchers on workaholism and hustle culture, and her book is a wake-up call for anyone who feels like work has taken over their life.

I'm so excited for you to meet Malissa Clark on today's episode.

We’ll be diving into how to spot unhealthy patterns of working, what leaders can do differently, and how to reclaim your time and well-being…. without sacrificing success.

​Check out the episode and let me know what you think!
