What happens when your greatest strength becomes your biggest liability?
In today's episode of UH-OH Conversations with Cohesive Leaders, Dr. Troy and Ben-Jamin Toy chat with Jimmy Burroughes, founder of JBL High Performance and author of Simplified to Amplify. Jimmy shares a vulnerable look into his spectacular 2017 burnout. Two and a half years of 18-hour workdays, intense global travel, and a relentless "achiever" mindset culminated in nearly costing him his life.
Jimmy breaks down the dangerous "I'll just..." habits that pull high-performing leaders into an inescapable whirlpool of overwork, and introduces his game-changing PVC Framework (Purpose, Value, Capacity). Learn how to stop treating your leadership value like a $5-an-hour task, how to successfully negotiate your capacity with your boss, and why career advancement requires shifting your energy from being "busy down" to "busy up."
If you are a driven professional running on empty, this episode is the flashing highway sign you need to stop swimming against the current and start leading with impact.
