Guest: Prof. Peter AlexanderDuring his career Peter Alexander has had the privilege to work in a variety of positions including Sales, Marketing, College Professor and Small Business Owner. Each role had one thing in common he says – high stress. It got so bad, Pete was diagnosed with stress-related diabetes and also ended up in the hospital with a severe case of diabetic ketoacidosis, and only a few hours away from being comatose.
It was a huge reality check. He knew it was time to walk away even though I had a great job, secure income and good benefits.
He’s since poured his energies into helping other hard-driving leaders avoid his mistakes and dedicated his professional career to helping others benefit from the stress management tools and techniques he learned and experienced first-hand. He’s even put his findings between two covers in a book called Lighten Your Day.
