The result? 76% of employees report experiencing burnout. Leadership burnout rose to 56% globally. Only 36% of the workplace is engaged. While AI promises leverage, it delivers a new kind of pressure: machine output can scale infinitely—humans cannot. Through keynote speaking, executive workshops, and organizational transformation, I help forward-thinking companies break free from burnout-driven productivity and adopt the science-backed Unhustle Method™ for sustainable high performance and human skills that are irreplaceable. Because the most innovative companies know: when people thrive, business thrives.
