This Isn't Working isn’t just another book about work-life balance—it's a bold call to action that challenges outdated success norms and provides refreshing approach to leadership accessible to anyone.
The book will challenge everything you thought you knew about success and leave you with a powerful roadmap to build a career that fuels, rather than depletes you, while focusing on three critical elements:
1. Transformational Leadership That Drives Success
- Authentic, sustainable leadership that optimizes well-being and impact.
- Leading with values, character, and purpose, not just performance metrics.
- Building a sustainable foundation—no more overworking to prove worth.
2. Cultivating Thriving Cultures & Workplace Well-Being
- Creating workplaces that benefit employees rather than harm them.
- Replacing toxic work environments with ones that unify, dignify, and uplift.
- Helping organizations retain top talent, foster engagement, and drive innovation.
3. Flourishing—Inside and Outside of Work
- Helping leaders prioritize their impact and meaning over relentless productivity.
- Creating autonomy and time for what truly matters—without guilt.
- Rewriting the rules so work supports life, rather than consuming it.
