In this insightful episode, we explore the critical skill of setting effective boundaries in the workplace.
As a productivity coach, I share my experience working with clients who have faced challenges in establishing these boundaries.
We'll delve into the fact that often, it's just a few colleagues who infringe on our time, not the entire office.
I'll guide you through practical strategies for managing frequent interruptions, saying 'no' without guilt, and using smart techniques like a five-minute countdown for those who ask for 'just a moment' of your time.
We'll also discuss how to deal with superiors and the importance of maintaining professionalism in all interactions.
Additionally, I'll provide tips on physical and virtual barriers that can aid in this process, such as managing your office space and calendar effectively.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to reclaim their time, teach others to respect their schedule, and enhance their productivity at work.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
