The world needs to know about emotional overdraft.

I wrote The Emotional Overdraft because I’ve lived it. I know what it’s like to sacrifice wellbeing for success – to work late, miss family moments, and believe burnout was part of the job. But it doesn’t have to be.

The book and mission for change reflects years of coaching leaders, founders, and CEOs who faced the same struggle – driven, capable people burning out, convinced overwork is the only path to success.

Too many leaders pay for success with their health. The most successful leaders I know delegate, manage their emotional overdraft, and don’t sacrifice happiness for productivity. I want to help leaders break free from the myths that keep them overdrawn – so they can thrive without burning out.

Speaking

A shot of pure inspiration.
