In this episode, Dean Newlund and Kim Rogne discuss:
- Redefining balance for high achievers beyond comparison
- The emotional and psychological roots of burnout
- Lessons from trauma and forced slowdown as catalysts for change
- Ego, control, and the illusion of productivity in leadership
- Reflection, self-awareness, and delegation as tools for sustainable success
Key Takeaways:
- Define what balance personally means to you—free from comparison, external standards, or social media illusions—and recognize the moments when you’re already living it.
- Build regular reflection into your schedule, whether through journaling, quiet mornings, or monthly check-ins, so you can slow down enough to notice what needs to shift before burnout hits.
- Practice the “Four D’s”—do, delegate, delay, or dump—to lighten your load and retrain your mind to see asking for help as a strength rather than a weakness.
- Pay attention to when busyness becomes a form of self-validation, and intentionally replace that constant need to fix and prove with rest, purpose, and self-compassion.
"When we do slow down, we can recognize when we’re in balance.” — Kim Rogne
