A short spoken YouTube message by Richard Schreiber (self-identified as a 66‑year‑old AI strategist, father, and caregiver) that frames chronic overwork and burnout as a common cycle driven by ambition, pressure, and attachment to work. Schreiber advises purposeful leadership focused on clarity, delegation, and reclaiming time — arguing leaders can build firms that thrive while avoiding perfectionism and guilt.
