101. Breaking Free from the Busyness Trap: Unleashing Sustainable Success with Teresa Vozza

101. Breaking Free from the Busyness Trap: Unleashing Sustainable Success with Teresa Vozza

To prevent burnout, we must reevaluate our checklists. Teresa Vozza is a leadership expert and executive coach who shares her passion and wisdom on getting in alignment with your true values. The idea that busyness equates directly to importance is a toxic paradigm that we need to break away from because many of us are stuck in a workaholic mindset and have become addicted to crossing endless tasks off our lists. Less can be more, and in order to move forward with a more sustainable lifestyle, we need to focus on making choices that align with our values and stop doing everything else. When you practice meaningful intent and focus on your vision, you can avoid burnout and live a happier and healthier life. Drop your addiction to busyness and focus on what really matters!

🌹 Teresa is a leadership expert with over 20 years of corporate experience: productivity is really about making choices that align with your values and stopping those activities that don't. 02:13
🗒 The rush of energy and adrenaline comes from crossing 6-7-8 things off your list: are the items on your list really meaningful? 04:24
❗️ We must rewire the belief that more is better: focus on meaningful intent because busyness does not necessarily equate to importance. 07:54
✅️ You can't operate where you're at today to achieve the kind of success that you want tomorrow: sustainable success is not made by constantly proving yourself. 11:55
👫 The entry point for Teresa's women clients is psychological well-being & the second curve: with male clients, it's more about the absence of stress and pressure, and improving relationships. 16:05
💪 Power is not fake it until you make it, but practice it until you embody it. 20:14
⏳️ The second curve is when we come to that critical point in our careers, and we ask ourselves “What it is all for?”: we are no longer willing to trade in dollars for time. 23:2
👨‍💼 A sense of belonging on a team, the freedom to express ideas and thoughts, and welcoming the diversity of opinion create a good work environment. 27:04
🤝 There is a power in communication when people are eyeball to eyeball: human-to-human contact and conversation is where bonds are created and unity is formed. 30:44
