Rest Is a Leadership Strategy with Dr. Erin Wilson

1 hour 5 minutes

Strategic Rest in Leadership: The NAP Framework

Today on Your Partner In Success Radio, my guest Dr. Erin Wilson is on a mission to transform how leaders and teams thrive by integrating relationship intelligence, strategic rest, and intentional leadership.

As CEO of Design Ideal Consulting, she crafts transformative team-building experiences and is a certified expert in Core Strengths, The Five Behaviors, and Everything DiSC. Erin is also the co-founder of the Strategic Rest Summit and co-author of 'Strategic Rest in Leadership: The NAP Framework', where she challenges the hustle mindset to help leaders cultivate clarity, resilience, and creativity. She co-hosts The Power NAP live show, exploring the intersection of rest, leadership, and innovation.

I have her book on my desk as we speak and I highly recommend it and this is why: I’m someone who tends to be a workaholic, so rest doesn’t always come naturally to me. What really struck me is how the book talks about the guilt so many of us feel for taking breaks and points out that rest is actually how we build sustainable leadership.
