What if the same drive that built your career is quietly eroding your relationships at home?When leaders ignore how their behaviors at work are affecting their most important relationships, it leads to exhaustion and burnout, says Lisa Skeffington. “It’s that constant pushing through the whole time, and it’s depleting your physiology without you even realizing that it happens,” she says.Lisa is a multi-award winning psychotherapist, executive coach, and author with over 25 years in private practice. She joins Daniel and Peter to discuss emotional wealth and how to bring your best self to both work and home.Tune in to learn:Key characteristics of a mentally and emotionally strong leaderThe three pillars of emotional wealthSome daily practices that can help develop emotional wealthLisa promotes a shift in mindset around success–away from “achieving more and having more” to “being fully present and connected to the life and the people we have around us so that we begin to regard emotional wealth as seriously as financial wealth.”Questions, comments, or topic ideas?
