In this week's episode of  the Imperfect Success Podcast, Nicole shares tactics to survive stressful "push periods" - intense work sprints when your workload skyrockets. 

 

Learn how to manage overwhelm and avoid burnout during crunch times, so you can get through the chaos without sacrificing your sanity.

 

5 Key Takeaways:

  • Establish an endpoint for push periods to maintain motivation. Knowing it's temporary prevents hopelessness.

  • Decline non-essential commitments during intense work periods. Only accept if it's a top priority project.

  • Choose 1-2 grounding habits to keep amidst chaos. Maintain rituals that provide calm and recharge.

  • Take back control over how you spend time. Combat helplessness by being intentional about priorities.

  • Build in recovery post-push period. Gradually resume normal routine rather than diving back into overdrive.
