Michael Levitt thought he HAD to work 6 am to 11 pm in order to succeed at the company he was at. It wasn’t until he had 369 of the worst days ever that it dawned on him that something had to give because he was completely burned out, 

After his wake-up call Michael overhauled his life and started Breakfast Leadership Network, as the Chief Burnout Officer. Listen as Michael shares how he learned to set boundaries in his work and personal life, so that you, too, can accomplish more, by doing less.

Enjoy listening!
