What does real high performance look like—and how can tech leaders avoid burnout while building a legacy?

In this energizing episode of Courage & Purpose, Diana sits down with Certified High Performance Coach Shawn Buttner to explore how purpose-driven leaders in tech and high-pressure industries can thrive without sacrificing well-being.

Shawn shares his personal journey from software engineer to business analyst to coach, what it taught him about reinvention, and how the High Performance Habits framework (by Brendon Burchard) creates structure and intentionality—so leaders can live and lead with alignment, not exhaustion.

They unpack:

* 💻 The hidden cost of success in high-pressure tech environments

* 🧠 How emotional intelligence improves team trust, engagement, and innovation

* ⚡ Why burnout isn’t about being weak—it’s often about living out of alignment

* 🔁 How identity shifts can become a portal to deeper fulfillment

* 🧭 Tactical mindset tools to stay grounded in purpose, not fear

Whether you’re a tech founder, product leader, creator, or coach—this conversation will challenge how you define success and inspire you to lead from within.
