This is one of my favorite episodes because it looks at customer experience from a very different angle.

Leah Marone competed in Division 1 basketball before becoming a psychotherapist. She joined me to talk about the connection between employee well-being and the experience customers receive.

Originally aired June 29, 2023 as Episode 39 of The Trusted Guide Podcast (then The Delighted Customers Podcast).

What we cover

  • The post-COVID "emotional hangover"

  • Why urgency culture produces burnout

  • The business risk of burned-out employees

  • The "full balloon" dilemma

  • Signs leaders should listen for

  • How leaders can improve engagement and retention through wellness

You can't pour from an empty cup

Burned-out employees can't deliver great experiences for long. Leah helps leaders recognize the warning signs and respond before the cost shows up with customers.
