Episode notes

What if the secret to sustainable high performance wasn't working harder, but rethinking how you experience time? In this episode of Humanity at Scale , host Bruce Temkin speaks with Cassie Holmes, Chaired Professor at UCLA Anderson School of Management, and best-selling author about why time, and not money, is the true currency of sustainable performance. Together they unpack the concept of time poverty, how constant urgency fuels burnout, and why small, intentional shifts in how we experience time can dramatically improve well-being. From zooming out to clarify purpose and protecting focus time at work, the conversation shows how leaders and individuals can achieve extraordinary results while supporting genuine human flourishing.
