Hello everyone, Today, I have a rather unusual episode for you. It’s a fragment from one of our Group Coaching Calls, which we hold monthly with members of the ENFP Unleashed program. Not only is the format of this podcast a bit different, but the theme of the call itself is as well. During the session we discussed things that suck about being an ENFP and how to deal with them. In this fragment we talk about avoiding burnout and stopping yourself from doing things you don’t enjoy.

Hey, it's Svetlana, Dan’s assistant. I’m excited to share one of my all-time favorite episodes that Dan has ever published. When I first listened to this podcast two years ago, I felt so understood and supported. Even though I don't think I have ADHD, it resonated with me deeply. We all struggle at times with following through, staying disciplined, and being consistent. Whether you're dealing with ADHD or just the usual ups and downs of life, I think you'll find a lot of value here too. Also, if you are lucky to be an ENFP, I recommend checking out Dan’s free training: https://www.dreamsaroundtheworld.com/enfptraining/ It includes 20+ pages PDF with excerpts from his book “The ENFP Calling”…
