553: Do More, More Naturally: How to Increase Productivity With
Less Stress and Greater Freedom | Amy Bruske, Kolbe Corp
What if you’re not burned out or unproductive—what if you’re simply working against your natural instincts?
In this episode of the Leaders of Transformation, Nicole Jansen sits down with Amy Bruske, President and Integrator of Kolbe Corp, to explore the powerful principles behind her new bestselling book, Do More, More Naturally, co-authored with David Kolbe.
Amy explains why success isn’t about forcing yourself to improve your weaknesses or manage your time more efficiently. Instead, it’s about understanding how you’re naturally wired to take action, solve problems, and make decisions. Together, Nicole and Amy discuss the often-overlooked conative part of the mind, the role of energy management, and how leaders can create thriving teams by leveraging natural strengths rather than fighting against them.
Whether you’re a leader, entrepreneur, or high achiever feeling stretched thin, this conversation will help you discover how to work in alignment with your instincts and create sustainable success.
