Sustainable Success

Rest Is a Leadership Strategy


Listen Later

We don’t talk enough about rest as a tool for vision, clarity, and longevity. Too often, rest is treated as a luxury or a reward for burnout. But I teach leaders to see it as a competitive advantage. When you rest with intention, you don’t just recharge, you make space for creativity, stronger decision-making, and deeper connections. The most effective leaders aren’t the ones who work the hardest. They’re the ones who understand that strategic rest is part of the plan, not a sign of weakness.
