In a world where busyness is worn like a badge of honour, leadership expert Brendon Le Lievre is challenging the status quo. As an executive coach and advocate for unbusy leadership, Brendon shares powerful insights on how leaders can move beyond the frantic, always-on culture and instead focus on impact, effectiveness, and wellbeing. In this conversation, we explore why so many leaders are burning out, the hidden costs of constant busyness, and practical strategies for creating an unbusy leadership style that drives real results.

We also dive into the six ‘busy styles’—from perfectionists to overcommitters—and how leaders can reframe their approach to work. Plus, Brendon shares his own experiences managing the busyness trap while juggling business, family, and community commitments. If you're tired of running on empty and want to lead with greater clarity and purpose, this episode is a must-listen.
