A note from a recovering overcommitter: a 2-step process to say NO like a pro, so you can deliver work that people remember.

Change Wired

What if the difference between busy and brilliant is one decision - choosing what feels right over what feels good?

Today, together we build a practical system for high performance: map your peak cognitive hours, defend them with clear boundaries, and feed them your most important task so your best thinking meets your highest leverage.
We walk through an elegant 2-step method for turning down distractions and saying no without drama.

We'll learn how to prevent burnout, often coming from over-committing, trying to look good or please others.

Burnout (even from the work you love) isn’t a mystery when you know where to look. We highlight early warning signs, and pair them with a ready-made recovery protocol.

Finally, we share a daily add-and-remove challenge to make good habits not a struggle but a default.

Together, on today's episode, we'll build a simple work-life operating system: design days that match your goals, say no like a pro to distractions, and let systems—not willpower—carry you forward.
If this resonates, tune in to today's show and share it with someone who needs better boundaries to protect the work that matters and the life, that feels fulfilling.
