Back-to-school season has a way of making everything feel like a yes. PTA? Sure. Volunteer? Okay. Take on another project at work because nobody else raised their hand? Fine. But suddenly your calendar is packed, you’re exhausted, and the things that actually matter to you are getting whatever energy is left. In this episode, I’m talking about how to recognize when you’re overcommitted, why high-achieving women are particularly vulnerable to taking on too much, and the two shifts that can help you start creating a life that feels full without constantly feeling drained by it. Because the goal isn’t an empty calendar. It’s a calendar filled with the things you actually want your life to be about.

In this episode, we unpack:

  • The 3 signs you’re overcommitted
  • Why a packed calendar isn’t necessarily the problem
  • The hidden cost of always being the one who says yes
  • How to get ruthless about what actually matters
  • Why a thrilling vision makes saying no so much easier
