PRINCE Harry is set to give a lecture on the importance of taking a break – despite making just one podcast since signing an £18million mega-deal with Spotify.
The Duke of Sussex – who took five months off work when daughter Lilibet was born in June – will discuss burn-out during a seminar to CEOs.
The talk will be screened to 100,000 people who subscribe to BetterUp. Harry was made the firm's chief impact officer last year.
Promos for the lecture show a photo of Harry alongside the slogan: "Breakthroughs happen when you take a break."
He will be joined at the Inner Work Day seminar by Meghan's friend Serena Williams.
News of the conference comes after Spotify took the Sussexes' podcast "into their own hands".
The couple signed multi-million pound deals with both Spotify and Netflix back in 2020 – a decision Harry says he was forced to take after he was stripped of his security detail during Megxit.

'HOLLYWOOD DREAMS'
Elsewhere, it's reported that the royal pair are making more celeb connections.
Meghan and Harry are understood to have asked for secret talks with Spider-Man couple Tom Holland and Zendaya, despite them never meeting previously.
The Duke and Duchess were reportedly eager to rub shoulders with the stars, whose recent release took £1.27billion at the box office.
Harry vowed to become “financially independent” when he and Meghan, 40, quit their lives as senior royals in 2020 and moved to the US.
Ms Levin, who spent a year working with Harry for an authorised biography, told Sun Online: "This all seems to be a big turnaround from their philanthropic and non-profit work to just pure entertainment.
