Join the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Growth Mindset Guide Community⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠_________I know you feel the weight of overwhelming responsibilities and that constant feeling of running on empty. In this essential episode of The YOU Review, host Selina Yankson addresses the epidemic of stress that's affecting professionals everywhere, offering practical strategies for managing your energy when everything feels like too much.Rather than adding another item to your already overwhelming to-do list, Selina focuses on what she calls "the stripping down process," identifying the root cause of your stress and systematically reducing what's draining your energy. She guides you through a practical audit to pinpoint whether your stress originates from work, health, relationships, or simply taking on too many problems from other people. Her approach isn't about perfection; it's about making small, sustainable changes that create space for you to breathe again.From setting boundaries with energy vampires to carving out as little as ten minutes for yourself a day, Selina's strategies are designed for real-life circumstances. She reminds you that you're not meant to carry everyone else's drama while neglecting your own energy needs, and that sometimes the most productive thing you can do is put yourself first.Key Takeaways:Identify the root source of your stress before tackling symptomsPractice "the stripping down process" to eliminate non-essential responsibilitiesSet boundaries with people who drain your energy through constant dramaCarve out 5-10 minutes daily for quiet timeUse journaling or voice recording to download overwhelming thoughtsIf you'd like to work with me on developing personalised stress management strategies, connect with me on the links below.Connect with Selina Yankson:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠#theyoureview #selinayankson #personaldevelopment #stressmanagement #boundaries #energymanagement #burnoutprevention #selfcare #worklifebalance #mentalhealth
