Episode 392: Your Calendar Choices You Make to Fill Your Days with That Lead to Burnout (and the Ones That Don’t)
Is your calendar shaping your leadership identity or silently pushing you toward burnout?
If you started this year determined to lead differently but find your days packed with back- to-back meetings, this episode offers a powerful gut check. Many leaders equate availability with effectiveness and busyness with value.

Understand how calendar misalignment contributes to decision fatigue, shallow thinking, and burnout.
When and where to use practical reflection questions to strengthen your leadership identity and create a healthier relationship with your time, your team, and yourself.
