RenewAble: Creating Energy to Live and Lead

RenewAble: Creating Energy to Live and LeadMost leaders don't have a time problem - they have an energy problem. In RenewAble, Dr Lynn Scoles, a medical doctor with over forty years of clinical experience and more than twenty years as an executive coach, explains why chronic fatigue, overwhelm and burnout have become so common among high-performing leaders, and what to do about it.Drawing on neuroscience, behavioural research and two decades of coaching senior executives, Dr Scoles shows that the brain's core wiring hasn't kept pace with the demands of modern life. This outdated 'operating system' leaves leaders feeling drained by everyday pressures that aren't actually dangerous - a difficult conversation, a missed deadline, an overflowing inbox.RenewAble introduces the Intentional Leadership (IL) model, a practical framework Scoles developed with colleagues Ross Anderson and Cameron Houston, for identifying exactly where personal energy is being lost and how to renew it. Readers learn how to manage their thinking and emotions without needing a 'systems upgrade'; how sleep, movement, nourishment and habits directly affect leadership capacity; and how to use everyday transitions - what Dr Scoles calls 'liminal spaces' - to reset and recharge without needing extra time.Written for executives, founders and professionals who are exhausted by constant demands but reluctant to slow down, RenewAble offers a practical, evidence-based approach to sustainable energy and leadership - not a quick fix, but a renewable one.
