Ep. 69 - Essential vs. Important

Welcome to the Flow and Flourish Podcast. This is what I like to call a “sister-friend” community, which is the safe space to talk openly and honestly about the challenges we face while managing the competing priorities between our personal and professional lives. Many of us are either in corporate, an entrepreneur of a combination of the two, on top of being moms, wives, caregivers, big sister’s or just the go-to person in our circles of friends and families. Having all that responsibility can leave you overwhelmed and depleted if you don’t take inventory of where you’re at on a regular basis. When we talk about managing our time, we have to learn how to tell the difference between what’s essential and what’s important. If you don’t you’ll keep going in circles and giving your time, energy and resources (aka capacity) to everything and everybody. In today’s episode, I share with you a few things that will help you manage your capacity and create your ideal work-life balance: The difference between essential and important Real life examples to help you know the difference 5 tips on How to know the difference between the two   5 Tips to help you choose between essential and important: Identify your values Assess where you’re spending time Decide what needs to shift Map out where it needs to go moving forward Set some boundaries After you’ve listened, I invite you to connect with me on social media.
