Choosing Bold: From Burnout to Thriving with Leigh Burgess, #91

Let’s Slow Down: Simple + Intentional Living, Decluttering, Life on Purpose

My guest today is the incredible Leigh Burgess. I was so inspired by our conversation, and I hope you are, too.

After over 20 years in healthcare and business, Leigh went on her own to build Bold Industries Group (BIG), an organization that encompasses her passion for tackling big challenges that when solved, make the world a better place. Her mission is to help leaders solve problems for good. Leigh is a regular contributor to Forbes and Entrepreneur. She was honored as one of Success Magazine’s 125 Leaders Making a Difference and is currently nominated for Success 50 Women of Influence. She also hosts her own podcast called The Bold Lounge.

Leigh and I talk about her burnout in 2020, which led her to leave the corporate world and boldly go out into the world with her own business. She models the power of a growth mindset and has an outlook on life that is both inspiring and energizing. After re-aligning herself with her meaning and purpose, she got intentional in building a life she loves that allows her to live boldy and thrive.

Lessons from Leigh:

-Our late 40s can be an awakening if we just give ourselves a fresh perspective.

-Happy isn’t a destination, it is a choice - a way of being in your own skin.

-Healing, nurturing and creating can help to find clarity.

-Sometimes, you just need to know where to go next. You don’t always need to know A-Z. You don’t need to have it all figured out!

-Managing burnout isn’t a one and done, you need to constantly manage yourself because life goes fast.

-Keep taking risks, being vulnerable, because there is so much strength to gain from those experiences.

-Celebrate your wins!
