About this episode
The episode discusses the importance of modeling leadership through work-life balance and resilience during crises.
Sometimes leadership is modeled in small ways — like leaving work at 4 p.m. and meaning it. Not because the job’s done — but because you’re showing your team that life outside of work matters too.
