Biography

Peggy Sullivan, a renowned author, keynote speaker, and corporate performance expert, is dedicated to eradicating the popular idea that “busy is better.” Her research, as presented in her proprietary 2023 Busy Report, reveals that 78% of the popular don’t have time for what’s important and that over-packed schedules lead to burnout, decreased productivity, and unhappiness.

As a busyness addict in recovery, Peggy has found that there is a huge price tag that comes with busyness. Her book, Beyond Busyness: How to Achieve More by Doing Less, provides actionable strategies and introduces her 3-Step Busy-Busting Method. This process helps people achieve peak performance, self-care, and happiness without compromising one for the other.

Recognized by Forbes, FOX, CBS, and NBC, Peggy‘s data-driven strategies have helped individuals from global organizations like Bank of America, Google, Merrill Lynch, and BlueCross BlueShield break the cycle of busyness.

Peggy, also the founder of the nonprofit organization “SheCAN!“, delivers her powerful message through speaking engagements and corporate consultations. She covers various topics, from breaking through the busyness trap to personal happiness as your superpower. Her mission is to help you take back control of your life and find the sweet spot between productivity and happiness.
