The cost of more: Building careers and success without lossing yourself...
We're wired to chase growth in our careers, our businesses, our bank balances.
But what happens when the pursuit of "more" starts to cost us the very things it's supposed to earn us: our health, our relationships, our sense of enough?
Join us for an honest conversation about our collective addiction to growth - the drive that builds careers and companies, and the same drive that burns people out. We'll explore the upside: ambition, momentum, the buzz of building something. And the downside: the toll it takes when growth becomes the only metric that matters. We’ll also be looking closer at the psychology behind addiction and how you can support people who are struggling.
Expect an open, unfiltered discussion for young professionals who want to build something that lasts, without losing themselves in the process.
