“I wish I had more hours in the day”
If you have ever said this, you know what it feels like to have an overflowing plate.
In this solo episode, I am diving into The Plate analogy — where the plate represents your capacity and everything you pile on it represents your priorities and day-to-day commitments.
When your plate feels too full, it can be much harder to keep your health as a priority. But instead of waiting for life to quiet down (spoiler: it rarely does), we can take a more practical approach: learning how to expand our capacity (the size of our plate) and reduce the load (take unnecessary things off it).
I cover how you can expand your capacity by:
→ Getting clear on your priorities
→ Aligning priorities
→ Stacking habits
→ Scheduling and planning
→ Prioritising your health
→ Simplifying and automating
As well as how to take things off your plate through:
→ Acknowledging emotional labour
→ Delegating and outsourcing
→ Setting boundaries and saying no
→ Challenging “shoulds” and creating a not-doing list
→ Looking at where you are leaking energy and cutting unnecessary stressors
→ Identifying what is urgent, important or otherwise
This episode will help you step back, assess your plate honestly, and make intentional decisions so your health doesn’t fall off.
