Breaking the Busyness Habit | Peggy Sullivan
Maybe that’s why your job search feels like a full-time job... but without the paycheck?
This week, Loren is joined by Peggy Sullivan—bestselling author of Beyond Busyness, corporate performance expert, and founder of She Can—to tackle one of the most destructive myths in executive career transitions: the busier you are, the more productive you must be.
Spoiler: it's not true.
Peggy knows firsthand how burnout disguises itself as drive. Her own journey through stress-induced health issues, personal loss, and extreme overwhelm led her to create a powerful framework that’s helped thousands—from entrepreneurs to Google and Bank of America execs—reclaim their time and focus on what actually moves the needle.
