Make Life Less Difficult

David Achata: Writing a Book to Yourself


Listen Later

My guest today is David Achata.

David is a returning guest and if you haven’t listened to our first conversation, I highly recommend it.  It’s episode 83. 

David is a leadership and team development coach, the author of several business leadership books, and he brings over twenty years of leadership experience into his work.  He’s experienced multiple career changes, moving across the country and back, supporting his mother through the end of her life, and more.

David is a great storyteller, an inspiring leader, a man who practices what he teaches. 

In our conversation today, David shares reflections on his most recent book, Executive Retreats for Busy Business Leaders: How to Achieve More by Working Less.  This is a fantastic book reminding us of the value of intentional time away.  More than that, though, David shares how he realized after publishing the book, that his number one audience was himself, hence the title of this episode, Writing a Book to Yourself.

David, thank you for jumping into another conversation here. Thank you for your authenticity and vulnerability.  Thank you for sharing your thoughtful wisdom and reflections.
