Let's talk about the overwhelming amount of burnout women experience, especially in women who have something genuine to offer their world. Burn out looks different for us all. Many of us find it difficult to embrace who we are, our point of difference and the niggling feelings that there could be another way to do things. In this episode I chat with Sam from Soulful Business Leadership about her personal experience with burnout and how it led her to transform her relationship with herself, her career and her relationships. By her [very] early 20's, Sam had climbed the corporate ladder where she was head of the state and presenting at national conferences but the premature birth of her daughter forced her to make some radical changes to how she was doing things. The issue was though, how do you change something you're so passionate about, obviously good at but know you can't sustain? Join us for a chat about the importance of self-leadership, high performance and energetic mastery in achieving sustainable success. While this episode covers a lot of theory and mindset, it was a vital part of the brief that we uncovered practical tools you could take away and implement. Sam + I both love the woo-woo but it means nothing without practical strategy + outcomes. 00:00 Introduction and Personal Background 02:13 Experiencing Burnout and Transformation 06:21 The Impact of Motherhood on Leadership 10:08 Understanding Emotions and Identity 14:40 The Three Pillars of Success 23:00 Cultivating Self-Confidence and Self-Trust 25:18 Honoring Energy Levels and Practicing Devotional Discipline 26:45 Embracing Individuality and Finding Your Own Strategies 32:34 The Importance of Emotional Intelligence 39:13 Navigating Change and Transformation in Relationships 42:12 Cultivating a Strong Vision and Purpose 49:58 Developing the Right Mindset, Skills, and Environment 53:30 Joining a Network of Like-Minded Women in Business 54:13 The Loneliness of Entrepreneurship and the Power of Meaningful Connections 55:19 Introducing Ivory: Streamlining Business Processes for Women 56:11 The Importance of Mindset and Cultivating the Woman You Want to Be 01:00:36 The Power of Community and Support in Business 01:02:58 Announcing the Launch of Talk Business: A Platform for Growth and Connection Guest Information: Samantha Johns Instagram Website: https://soulfulbusinessleadership.com/ Ivorey: https://ivorey.io Talk Business: Coming soon.
