EP 72. How to Protect Your Energy as a Leader at Year’s End

In this episode, I help you navigate the hectic close of the year without losing all of your energy.

We all feel the year end push to wrap things up, often pushing to meet deadlines that might not even be essential. As leaders, we often panic about time running out and it's so easy to absorb the stress and urgency from the people around us.

I’m sharing three major traps that can drain your energy as a leader, especially as we close out the year.

If you’re a leader feeling the pressure to finish strong but struggling with constant demands, stress, and “not enough” mindsets, this episode is here to help you identify and avoid these common pitfalls.

Here’s what you’ll learn:

  • What strategies you can use to protect yourself from absorbing others' stress and overwhelm
  • Why “arbitrary deadlines” create more stress than value and how to recognise when they’re unnecessary
  • How to set boundaries around other people’s stress and avoid absorbing emotions that aren’t yours
  • The mindset shifts to stop fixating on “not enough” and focus on what’s been accomplished, so you end the year feeling fulfilled, not frazzled.


Tune in to find out how to stay energised and enter the new year feeling refreshed and ready.

This episode is for leaders wanting to maintain leadership effectiveness even during the busiest times of the year.

I'd love to hear how you're navigating the end of year rush and protecting your energy. Have you discovered any tactics that work particularly well for you?  Please feel free to reach out via Instagram or LinkedIn.

If you know someone who would benefit from listening to this episode, please pass it on.
