Burnout to Balance: Michael Levitt on Boundaries, Resilience, and Redesigning Your Life
Description
When burnout nearly cost Michael Levitt everything, it became the turning point for a new kind of leadership, one built on clarity, boundaries, and a redefined version of success.
In this powerful episode of Life & Leadership Connected, I’m joined by Michael Levitt, founder of the Breakfast Leadership Network and a global authority on burnout prevention.
Michael opens up about the season that brought him to the edge: a career collapse, health crisis, and personal loss, all rooted in the absence of boundaries and sustainable balance. But what followed was a journey of deep self-leadership, recovery, and a life redesigned around purpose.
This conversation is packed with wisdom for young professionals, aspiring leaders, and high-achievers who want to grow without burning out.
You’ll learn:
- How to recognize the early signs of burnout
- Why high-performers struggle to set healthy boundaries
- How to rebuild your life around values, purpose, and peace
- The role of resilience in long-term impact
- Encouragement for redefining success, especially if you're feeling stuck, exhausted, or overwhelmed
Whether you're just starting your career or leading others, this episode is your reminder: balance is not a luxury, it’s leadership.
Listen now and take your next step from burnout to breakthrough.
