714: Stop the Overwhelm

If you've ever ended a day exhausted but unclear on what you actually accomplished, this episode is for you. Overwhelm and busyness have become the new norm. Many of us confuse being busy with being productive—which leaves us drained, and doubting ourselves.

 

In today's episode, Cindra and Lisa explore the mental game of prioritization and how high performers stay focused on what truly matters. You'll learn why prioritization is so hard, how clarity and completion fuel confidence, and what mindset shift is necessary to create real work–life harmony.

 

We also share two practical tools you can start today:

 

⭐ The One Thing Question
Ask yourself: "What is the one thing that, if I did it today, would make the biggest impact?"
This question cuts through noise, strengthens self-trust, and builds confidence.

 

🚫 The Not-To-Do List
High performers don't just plan what to do—they intentionally choose what to stop doing. You'll learn 3 things to remove that instantly protect your time and focus.

We close with four powerful coaching questions to help you lead your day with clarity and intention.

High performers don't do more — they do what matters most.

 

✨ Key Takeaways

• Busyness isn't a badge of honor—clarity is.
• Completion builds confidence; overwhelm drains it.
• Protecting your time is a leadership skill.
• Rest isn't a reward — it fuels performance.
