5 Steps to Beat Executive Loneliness - with Nick Jonsson

Who loves being lonely at the top? We so often hear about this tradeoff to professional success, yet what does that loneliness look like, for real? Can we be married, have a social life and hobbies, and still feel miserable? And is that actually inevitable?

In this episode, you will hear about:
why honesty and vulnerability are inevitable parts of the healing journey
how can asking for help look like
preventing sports from becoming a new damaging addiction, substituting alcohol
the moments of gratitude

Csaba Toth is back on the show, this time to dive deep into the topic of cognitive diversity. While the visible layer of diversity (having people of different ages, racial backgrounds, gender, etc.) is an essential step for businesses, it can become a big liability if not developed further.
