The #1 Energy Drain in Your Business...and How to Stop It!
After working with hundreds of business owners over the past 7 years, I've discovered the ONE thing that drains people's energy more than anything else.
It's not the backend stuff.
Or boring admin tasks.
Or even working with a bunch of clients.
Nope, it's something much sneakier: overthinking.
Overthinking takes place when you expend mental energy worrying about, questioning, or second-guessing yourself and your decisions.
Overthinking is unproductive in the sense that it doesn't actually produce anything of value.
Which brings us to an important distinction:
🌟 Productive thinking vs. unproductive thinking 🌟
Productive thinking creates something tangible (like content) or intangible (like motivation or clarity). It's what happens when you're creating, problem-solving, or visioning.
Unproductive thinking, on the other hand, keeps you spinning in place. It can seem productive in the moment (sneaky brains!), but it leaves you feeling unsatisfied and stuck.
All of that to say: if you've been feeling low on energy lately, it's time to take a closer look at what's happening internally.
Where are you spending the most brainpower?
Maybe you're not tired of the work itself.
Maybe you simply need a break from all the unproductive thinking.
When you check in with yourself right now after reading that, what feels most true to you?
If you're realizing you tend to spend a lot more time on the unproductive end of the spectrum, I have good news: with awareness and the right tools, you can learn how to shift your focus back in the other direction.
Start by simply noticing the ways in which unproductive thinking shows up for you.
Catch it happening.
And do your best not to judge yourself for it.
I'm telling you, the awareness piece alone is HUGE!
That's all you need to practice for now.
Your brain (and your business) will thank you 🙏
One step at a time,

P.S. Learning how to stop overthinking has created more calm in my life than anything else. In fact, the most common feedback I get from people is how calm my energy and presence feels to them!
This is something I intentionally create, and teaching you how to experience it too is a big part of my life's work.
Ready to stop overthinking for good, and join me and my clients in the land of calm?
