This week I'm joined by return guest and long-time friend, Kirsten Zeigler, of KDZ HR Consulting. We are chatting about burnout from both the perspective of the leader of the team and the individual experiencing burnout personally. If you've been feeling burnt out - or you know someone on your team has been feeling it - this episode is for you.

I've talked briefly on the podcast (like two years ago) about the importance of 'play' in business, but a) it's been awhile, and b) this conversation takes the previous one to the next level. My guest is Kalyl from Words Hurt Copy and we are talking about imagination and fun and performance and authenticity. Believe me, you aren't going to want to miss this one.

He has a decade and a half of experience directing performers onstage and nearly as long directing founders and creators on the page.

My guest today, Sofia Souiri, is pushing back on the misconceptions about what resilience means, and we're exploring what this concept looks like in entrepreneurship. From adaptation, to unconscious coping patterns, tying our identities to our businesses, and more, this conversation is deep, personal, and exploratory.

If you've been listening to the podcast this year, you've heard me actively exploring losing sight of myself, my vision, my stated mission, what's important, and the spiral that came along with it. But in losing myself, I've been forced to find myself again, and that has been so empowering that it feels like a ... dare I say it?... Quantum Leap. My friend and guest Courtney is joining me this week to talk about what she calls the "goo eras" of our lives and how that impacts our relationship with our businesses.
