Show Notes

When is ‘enough’ enough?

Recently, my client showed up to a coaching session. She was wrecked.  She had spent the good part of the last two years delivering, showing up and serving her clients  really well.  

I was so proud of and thrilled for her - and then she dropped the clanger on me: “Em, when is ‘enough’ enough?”


I fully understood what she meant. We all need to make money. But how do we choose between the relentless hustle of work and our own wellbeing?


Is it one or the other, or can we find a healthy balance? 


Today, I’m sharing the questions I asked my client in order to uncover the root of her exhaustion, and the strategies we discussed to help her re-prioritise her own sense of wellbeing. 


We’ll explore redefining what success looks like to you, how to implement self-care to avoid burnout and regularly adding something to your diary that you can look forward to. 


Remember, success isn't solely about achieving those financial goals; it's also about maintaining mental, emotional and physical health to keep you on the right track. 


So, what does success look like in your own life? And when is ‘enough’ enough for you?
