Work, life balance is something we are all becoming a lot more aware of, but being aware and enacting it are two very different things.

Most of us will be familiar with the feeling of burn out, over work, or being stuck in a toxic work place, but what happens when those very circumstances result in you waking up in the hospital in your twenties?

That is exactly what this weeks episode is about.

Wayne Reuben is the host of Hard Yards in leadership and he is an accomplished CEO with decades of senior leadership experience focused in APAC and Australia.

Now he is an international leader who provides coaching, mentoring and advisory services to Founders and C-level leaders.

But in his early days he encountered work place stress that had a significant impact on his health and completely changed how he approached work and his own life.

In this episode Wayne shares:

-      The experience of being targeted by a boss at work

-      How his experience with work led him to a heart attack

-      The journey he went on to prevent a similar experience from happening again

-      Why he was actually happy when a later job made him redundant

-      The pieces of advice around work and leadership that he has learnt

Key Quotes
