Join in as host Doug Riddle speaks with Amy Leneker, acclaimed leadership advisor, keynote speaker, and founder of the Center for Joyful Work. Amy shares her journey as a recovering “workaholic”, where she faced the pressures of high-performance culture, to becoming a passionate advocate for reimagining our relationship with stress and the workplace.

Drawing from her own battles with burnout, including the realization that simply changing jobs doesn't address deeper issues, Amy offers listeners a candid look at the shifts required to foster sustainable, joyful work environments.

Hear Amy reflect on her upbringing, the stress stories she internalized, and how these influenced her relentless drive and eventual burnout. She discusses the importance of recognizing our own limits, challenging the narrative that stress is the inevitable price of success.

The conversation also explores Amy’s recent book, Cheers to Monday, which has soared to the top of USA Today's bestseller lists. Amy details her research into the drivers of joy at work and shares actionable insights for leaders and organizations eager to create cultures that nurture both performance and well-being.
