64 Acey Holmes: Turn To-Dos into Ta-Das… by Delegating the Not-Fun Bits

Send us Fan MailBonnie sits down with Acey Holmes, founder of BoredLess, to unpack the neuroscience of play for adults and what it means at work. Drawing on her journey from speech pathologist to speaker and facilitator, Acey explains why burnout often looks like “play deprivation”—and how reframing tasks to be interesting, entertaining, or stimulating changes everything. She breaks down four personal play identities, shares a powerful story from law-enforcement evidence teams, and maps easy on-ramps to playful work design that don’t require improv games or office ping-pong. The duo also explores delegation beyond assistants—think cross-delegation to family, outsourcing taxes and creative assets, and letting marketing be next on the list. Mic-drop moment: “It’s not about what to do with your free space… it’s about how to be in it.”LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/aceym/Website - Workshops for ERG Leaders | Playful Work Design: https://playfulworkdesign.com/#WomenInBusiness #PlayAtWork #ProfessionalServices #Productivity #WorkLifeJoySupport the showGet your D2E Swag Here Find us on:D2EGSD on Youtube:D2EGSD Website:LinkedIn:Spotify:Find Your Service ProKeywords:#Productivity#Delegation#Outsourcing#Productivity#Leadership   #Viral
