She opens up about the “messy middle” of entrepreneurship, decision fatigue in high-performance careers, and why so many high-achievers struggle with life outside their craft.Together, they explore leadership, emotional intelligence, failure, and why stepping away from constant doing can completely shift how you see yourself—and your life.
