Welcome to the Give A Heck Podcast with Dwight Heck—where real conversations challenge how you think, live, and lead.

In this episode, Sira Laurel explains why leadership burnout is rising among high performers and highly sensitive professionals. Drawing from over 15 years in HR and organizational development, she breaks down how traditional leadership systems are misaligned with human biology—and why the people pushing the hardest are often the ones paying the highest cost.

If you’ve ever felt exhausted trying to perform in systems that don’t fit how you think, process, or lead—this conversation will give you clarity and direction.

Expect insight on:
• Leadership burnout and system failure
• Highly sensitive and high-performing individuals
• Why “push harder” culture creates long-term damage
• Nervous system awareness and sustainable performance
• How leadership must evolve in a changing world

This is not theory—this is real-world experience and practical perspective.

🎧 Listen now and rethink what leadership and performance should actually look like.
