How To Achieve Work-Life Balance Before Your Job Kills You with Chris Michael Harris

Summary Our guest is Chris Michael Harris, founder of StartupU and host of the StartupU Podcast.

ABOUT THE EPISODE Chris Michael Harris is the founder of StartupU, an interactive, online learning platform that teaches entrepreneurs how to take an idea or an existing business and turn it into a highly successful and profitable company. But Chris wasn’t always a successful leader.

In his late 20s, Chris was suffering from severe health issues, which took a toll emotionally, physically, and mentally. His body was shutting down, and he struggled with suicidal thoughts. Doctors warned him he’d be gone by age 50 without making drastic changes to his lifestyle.

In this episode, Chris shares what it took to turn his life around, and find balance in his personal and professional life as well as some of the more experimental things he’s tried to expand his consciousness and achieve his full potential.

What We Discuss with Chris: How to avoid becoming too attached to your career Why your ego may be preventing you from being happy Why he believes some psychedelics are powerful tools that help his own mental health Why meditation and breathwork are beneficial for mental health Gut health and how much serotonin in your brain is produced in your gut.
