How do we stay energized, focused, and fulfilled in a world that constantly demands more? In this episode, hosts Biff Maier and Nicole Coman are joined by bestselling author and Harvard Medical School visiting scholar Suneel Gupta, who shares why the path from burnout to balance doesn’t require a major life overhaul—just a few intentional shifts.
Hosts Biff Maier and Nicole Coman talk with Suneel about:
- How your dharma—your inner calling—can be expressed without upending your life
- The connection between energy management and leadership, and why rest isn’t a luxury but a discipline
- Practical tools like the 55/5 rule and traffic light self-awareness to build resilience and avoid burnout
- Why we should stop asking kids “What do you want to be?” and start asking, “What brings you joy?”
- How Montessori education can support self-regulation, reflection, and purpose from an early age
With humor, insight, and real-life stories, Suneel offers a fresh, actionable take on how small adjustments—made consistently—can lead to big, lasting impact.
