In this episode, Anna and Heidi Hinda discuss the importance of energy management for women in business, particularly solopreneurs. They explore how to maintain energy levels, the significance of rest and cycles, and the concept of 'runway time' for productivity. The conversation also delves into rituals, the WEEBSS framework for energy management, and the mindset shift from ‘playing not to lose’ to ‘playing to win’. They emphasise the need to address fears and self-sabotage that can hinder progress, and explore themes of self-worth, imposter syndrome, and the importance of curiosity in challenging negative beliefs and setting boundaries to protect one's well-being.
