Is it me? But where did summer go? The 1st month of the 4th quarter is practically done. And I’ve been hearing from all my clients and my own body -- WE ARE TIRED.

I’ll be honest: I am burned out in a good way cause SO MANY opportunities have been coming.

There are so many that it’s been NECESSARY to navigate saying NO and establishing boundaries for self-care (aka taking breaks from humans) lol.  

As we approach the holiday season, it is important to find a balance between work and personal life to avoid burnout.

How do we navigate the hustle around the holidays to achieve this?

Don’t worry, I got’chu! I have an early holiday present with this episode on how to sleigh the Q4 burnout so you can actually enjoy the holidays.

What We Cover in This Episode:

  • How Q4 is a crucial sales quarter for many businesses and companies
  • Why the holiday season makes it challenging to balance work and personal life
  • Ways you can achieve a sustainable and productive quarter
  • Professional and personal tips for a productive and happy holiday season
  • Scheduling personal time, working on self-care, and managing family obligations
  • Only set a maximum of 3 goals and seek support or accountability when needed
  • Reflect on what isn't working well in your life to gain clarity
  • Understand the importance of finding the pathway to a more balanced life

If you would like to see how to work with me to create a more sustainable life where you can be more present with yourself and create your own checklist of success that’s not created by society and loved ones, then schedule a complimentary legacy business and career review at elainelou.com/call
