Show Notes
In this solo episode, I share about my bandwidth limit and what happens when I ignore it.
What are the early signals your brain sends when it needs a break?
I talk through my own recent experience of pushing too far, what it taught me and how I created the space I needed to reset.
You’ll hear:
– The difference between being tired and being mentally overloaded
– Practical ways to recharge quickly
– Why recovery is actually a business skill
– How to stay grounded while juggling multiple roles
