In a world that rewards speed, output and constant motion, most leaders know how to push. The harder question is whether success is sustainable once you’ve built it.
In Built to Breathe, founder, CEO and leadership advisor Paige McPheely challenges the idea that efficiency, endurance and doing it all alone are the price of ambition for modern leaders. Drawing on more than a decade building remote-first companies, raising venture capital and advising high-performing executives, she explores a quieter truth: Lasting success depends not on how much you can carry but on what you’re willing to release.
