Charlene Li: How to be great (and maintain your boundaries)

Getting Healthy With Charlene Li

Renowned digital transformation expert Charlene Li will share how she applied her own disruptive innovation to radically improving her health, and we’ll discuss how you can disrupt your own unhealthy patterns. In her newsletter, Charlene wrote: “I’ve built a career being an expert in transformations, but two years ago, I struggled to make one for myself.

I was overweight and pre-diabetic. I had cardiovascular issues and bad sleep patterns. I was unhealthy. It had been my status quo for a long time. I knew I was unhealthy but, as is so often the case among women, I was too busy giving of myself, pleasing people, and holding everything together. I was an incredibly competent, high-achieving person. I didn’t let balls drop.

Yet, there I was, letting the biggest ball of them all come crashing down.

What was any of this for if I wasn’t healthy enough to enjoy it?

So, like the start of any mega-transformation, I decided to leave the status quo behind.”
