Most founders treat recovery like a luxury or a reward for hard work, but high performance isn't sustainable when you're running on empty. In this episode, I sit down with Jess Spendlove, Executive Performance Coach, Accredited Sports Dietitian, author of For The Long Run, and former health advisor to over 30 professional sports teams, Special Forces units, and executive leaders at PWC, AirTree, and QBE. If you are a busy founder struggling with chronic fatigue, relentless stress, or the trap of hustle culture, this conversation will equip you with practical micro-habits, recovery rhythms, and actionable strategies to safeguard your health while scaling your business.
