šŸŽ™ļø Episode 7 – Leading Without Burnout: Sustainable Rhythms for Long-Term Impact


Welcome back to The Savage Executive Podcast—where we lead with clarity, build with strategy, and multiply what matters. I’m your host, Steve Smith, and in this episode, we’re tackling a universal leadership challenge: How do you lead strong without burning out?


If you’ve ever felt like your leadership pace is unsustainable—or that exhaustion is somehow a badge of honor—this episode is for you. I’m diving deep into the lie that burnout equals effectiveness and sharing three sustainable leadership practices to help you thrive, not just survive:


  • šŸ” Build rhythms, not just routines
  • 🚫 Protect your non-negotiables
  • šŸ¤ Delegate to breathe, not just to scale


Plus, I’m giving you a simple, actionable anti-burnout challenge you can implement this week to reset your leadership pace and protect what matters most.


šŸŽ§ Tune in to discover how to create space, safeguard your energy, and lead for the long haul—without losing your soul in the process.


šŸ‘‰ Know a leader who’s stretched thin? Share this episode with them.


And don’t forget to connect with me on social media—we’re building a tribe of leaders who lead boldly and finish strong.


Stay sharp. Lead boldly. Keep building what matters.
