Ever been on vacation—or taken time off—only to find it hard to relax because of unfinished business at work? In this episode, Cindy Van Eeckhout and I unpack why discipline isn’t just about working harder—it’s about knowing when to rest.

We compare this to competitive running: you can’t race every day without recovery or you’ll end up injured. The same is true in leadership and business. Cindy shares practical strategies executives can apply immediately to prevent burnout, maintain momentum, and restore balance—without sacrificing achievement.

If you want to keep performing at a high level and enjoy the life you’re working so hard to build, this conversation will show you how.

Transcript
00:00I'm so committed to my goals that it's very difficult for me to enjoy time off when I know
00:07I've got responsibility and things that need to be taken care of. So yes, I can stop, I can pause,
00:12I can rest, but that's not really that restful for me sometimes because I have the sense of
00:19responsibility about what I do. I was going to say it's more like it's the pain of discipline
00:25or the pain of regrets. And if I don't do my work I feel guilty, but what I'm hearing from you is
00:31saying treat your personal responsibilities as your work responsibilities and discipline yourself
00:39to make that a priority as well.
