Manage episode 437177712 series 3441852
Do one day you feel like you are on top of the world, and yet one day feel overwhelmed by life and everything you are expected to deal with? Did you know that this when you are overdrawn in your emotional overdraft?
Andy Brown - the author of Amazon Number one bestseller, "The Emotional Overdraft: 10 simple changes for balancing business success and wellbeing” explains all on this not-to-miss episode.
We talk about:
What your emotional overdraft is and how it can deplete your resilience
Guilt as an impact on resilience
Change your resilience by changing habits - but don't worry, there are no 5am gym and journalling sessions here
How we can measure and spot habits in our emotional spending...
Why the Lone Ranger needed to delegate and sort out those systems..
Andy is also a podcast host, leadership coach and award-winning advisor with over 30 years’ experience.
Andy wrote his book after hundreds of conversations with leaders, entrepreneurs and founders – all of which pointed to the fact that every single one of them was – to some extent or another - subsidising their success at the cost of their own physical or mental wellbeing, what he calls their ‘emotional overdraft’. Andy believes the currency of an emotional overdraft is resilience. The longer and deeper you are overdrawn, the less resilient you become, which leads to stress, overwhelm and burnout.
Andy is here to help us get out of our overdraft and stay out of it more often!
