Episode 23: Remembering WHY We Lead: A Pep Talk for Leader Burnout | 12MinuteLeadership

When deadlines pile up and your calendar leaves no breathing room, purpose is usually the first thing to slip. Episode 23 of 12MinuteLeadership is a short, practical reset to bring you—and your team—back to center.We walk through four anchors that restore focus and energy:Lead with a mission: Separate job from calling and use your “why” as a decision filter and retention magnet.Create meaningful change: Let frustration become “divine discontent”—fuel for improving what’s stale or broken.Achieve more together: Align roles, delegate outcomes, and build trust so momentum multiplies.Grow people into their potential: Reframe leadership as a privilege that shapes careers and confidence.You’ll hear a personal story from my nonprofit work in India that brings these lessons to life—and a few prompts to help you reconnect with your own purpose.If leadership has started to feel heavy, this 12-minute episode will help you trade pressure for perspective and exhaustion for impact.If this message lands with you, share it with another leader who needs a reminder of why they started. And take one small action today that honors the moment you first wanted to lead.Follow on Instagram: @12minuteleadership Order my book, Lead Anyone!
