Ep 29. Doug Michalak - Kellogg Evening/Weekend: Embracing the Juggle while Prioritizing Connection
Today’s guest, Doug Michalak, is proving that you really can thrive in multiple arenas at once. While pursuing the evening/weekend MBA program at Kellogg, Doug is also building a successful career in sports media at NBC, and loving the challenge of juggling it all.
In our conversation, Doug shares how he finds energy in balancing multiple responsibilities, why he makes it a point to meet with professors one-on-one, and how those personal connections have shaped his MBA experience. We also talk about his belief that spending time with the people who matter most isn’t a distraction from great work; it’s fuel for it.
Doug’s story is an inspiring look at what it means to live a full, connected, and high-performing life.
