Work So Hard Burnout Nearly Killed Him feat. Nick Medlock

The Jonnie Jensen Show

About

If Nick hadn't have been training for a marathon, burnout would have killed him. And he was only 28 at the time! Now 5 years later he sold that business and is growing a second. This is a powerful Comeback Kings episode that will move, motivate and make you laugh.

Nick Medlock is 33. He built an outstanding-rated care company from the ground up alongside his mum, sold it when his health gave him no other choice, and is now building again. Jonnie Jensen talks to him about what happens when the drive that makes a man successful becomes the thing that nearly destroys him.

WHY THIS MATTERS

A man who can't stop isn't strong. He's running on empty and calling it dedication. Nick's story names where that road ends, and what the way back looks like.
