What happens when the life you’ve worked decades to build no longer fits who you’ve become?
After 20 years at Goldman Sachs, David Landman—former Global Head of Talent Development—walked away from corporate life to rediscover alignment, energy, and meaning. In this conversation with Erin Coupe, he opens up about the identity crisis that followed, the slow unraveling of burnout, and the mindset shifts that helped him find his way back to purpose.
Together, they explore:
- How high achievers can thrive without burning out
- Why self-awareness and intentional leadership are the future of work
- The surprising power of community, nature, and stillness in a fast-paced world
- If you’ve ever felt stuck, misaligned, or ready for your own long exhale—this episode is your permission to pause, reflect, and redefine success on your own terms.
