Episode Synopsis

In the third installment of our leadership series with Dr. Guy Beaudin, we explore The Inner Game of Leadership — where energy, recovery, and resiliency determine whether leaders can sustain the weight they carry.This isn’t about strategy or organizational charts. This is about what happens inside the leader — in the quiet moments when pressure builds, energy fades, or life hits harder than expected. Dr. Beaudin draws on decades of coaching senior executives around the world to explain why leadership ultimately rises and falls on a person’s ability to manage their inner world.Together, we talk about burnout, purpose, emotional stamina, and the difference between simply resting and truly recovering. I share some of my own stories from seasons when grief, leadership, and exhaustion collided — and what it took to regain clarity, strength, and hope.Energy — Leadership as an energy game, not just a time game. How physical, emotional, and purpose-driven energy fuel or drain your ability to lead.Recovery — Why recovery is more than sleep or a weekend away — and how real renewal comes from meaning, reflection, and reconnection.Resiliency — Not bouncing back to who you were, but growing into someone deeper, stronger, and more grounded because of what you’ve gone through.How ego and over-identifying with your title quietly drain energy and weaken resilience.The subtle warning signs of burnout most leaders miss.How to rebuild when you’re running on empty.I want to thank my friend, Dr. Guy Beaudin, for being so generous with his time, wisdom, and heart throughout this leadership series. These conversations have been a gift — and I’m already looking forward to continuing the journey together in Season 2.Episode Description:In This Episode, We Explore:Closing Note of Gratitude:
