You are sharp at work. You make decisions, lead people, solve problems. Then you get home and the smallest thing tips you over.
It is not that you are less capable at home. Every decision you make through the day draws on the same reserves, and by evening your body has very little left to give.
In this episode, Etienny Trindade explains why the women who seem to manage better usually have more structure in their environment, not more capability, and how to find exactly where your space is taking your energy.
In this episode you will learn
- Why capable women run out of capacity by the evening
- Why the women who seem to cope better usually have better structure around them, not more strength
- How a ten minute scan of your space shows you where your energy is going
- What Etienny has been building, and what comes next
The ten minute scan
Walk through your space the way your body does. Where do you hesitate, search, decide, or tidy on the way past? Each of those moments costs something. The scan shows you where your environment is spending your energy, so you know what to change first.
This episode answers
- Why do I fall apart at home when I am fine at work?
- Why do I have nothing left in the evening?
- How does my home affect my energy after work?
- Is my evening exhaustion a willpower problem?
