    Mar 30 2026

    Burnout isn’t just about workload. It’s a leadership and capacity problem. If you’re leading under pressure, this episode will change how you think about performance and stress.

    In this episode of Efactorx, I break down why leaders in high-stakes environments like cybersecurity often operate in what I call the “emotional basement” and how emotional intelligence helps regain clarity and control.

    We cover burnout, psychological safety, tactical empathy, and how to lead teams effectively when the stakes are high.

    Follow the podcast for more on leadership, emotional intelligence, and real-world execution under pressure across cybersecurity, AI, and modern technology.
