The Sage Sayers: Cultural Reasons We Don’t Take Time Off From Work

My guest this week is Marie-Louise Pereira, a leadership and mental wellness coach based in France. Marie-Louise helps leaders replace stuck, unhappy feelings with a confidence that helps them achieve their dreams, find better balance, and with that, a more fulfilling career. Marie-Louise and I spoke in the New Year on a problem many of our clients shared: Switching off from work, especially on mandated work break, and then challenging whatever inner critical, old, and fixed cultural mindsets get in our way of relating well with our work. Though we recorded our interview late December, with global news of pivotal leaders like New Zealand's PM Jacinda Ardern resigning due to burnout, our conversation might spark something new within. You can find Marie-Louise Pereira through her LinkedIn profile.  I've also interviewed Marie-Louise earlier on how she navigated her own burnout, which you can find here.
