Lemkau told BI why you shouldn't skimp on sleep or be overly obsessed with your job.
As CEO of JPMorgan Wealth Management, Lemkau runs a unit with $1 trillion in client assets and nearly 10,000 employees.
She disagrees with Wall Street's "work until you drop" culture that encourages skimping on sleep to get the job done.
Lemkau got used to sleeping less in order to balance her career at JPMorgan and raising two children.
Lemkau chose sleep and unplugging from technology, aiming for eight hours of sleep a night and not using her phone before bed.
