In this candid and thought-provoking episode, Cara Silletto tackles one of the most pressing issues in today’s workforce: unsustainable workloads.

Drawing from real conversations with senior care executives and leaders across industries, Cara breaks down why “analyzing capacity” consistently scores low in organizations, and what that means for employee retention. She argues that the workaholic era is officially over, and companies that continue relying on overextended “rockstar” employees are setting themselves up for failure. If you're struggling with staffing, retention, or leadership overwhelm, this episode is a must-listen.
