In this episode, I am joined by Vijay Rajendran, an executive coach and founder of Startup Systems, as we delve into the evolving conversation around self-care in the context of performance and leadership.
Our discussion highlights the importance of prioritizing not only our own well-being but also that of our teams. We explore the shifting narrative away from traditional strategies of success towards an integrated approach that takes self-care into account for sustained productivity and effectiveness.
Vijay shares his diverse background, from his experiences during the dot-com bubble to his journey in the Peace Corps in Cameroon, and his various roles in startups and digital banking. His insights stem from a life dedicated to serving entrepreneurial leaders, making him a compelling guide on the topics of leadership, energy management, and self-care practices.
Throughout our conversation, we tackle the challenges leaders face, particularly the pressure to continually perform over multiple responsibilities. Vijay candidly reflects on his personal journey, recounting the realities of managing a successful career alongside family obligations, illustrating how the perception of success can often obscure the day-to-day realities many leaders endure.
