307 When Getting Things Done Still Leaves You Drained with Heather Chauvin
You're crushing your to-do list, checking off task after task, but by 3 PM you feel like you've been hit by a truck. Sound familiar? That was my guest Heather Chauvin's reality until a stage 4 cancer diagnosis in 2013 changed everything.
As a mom of three boys and a new business owner, Heather was in the thick of juggling it all. She was getting things done, hitting deadlines, and managing everything on her plate. But she was also completely burned out, resentful, and running on fumes with an internal ache that this wasn't sustainable. Her cancer diagnosis became an unexpected teacher, showing her that there's a whole other layer to how we manage our time and energy.
Today, Heather shares what she discovered about energetic time management and why asking "How do I want to feel?" might be more powerful than asking "What do I need to do?"
In This Episode, We Cover:
- Why energy management works alongside your planning system
- How to spot invisible energy drains in your daily life
- Why women automatically shrink themselves (and how to stop)
- The simple question that changes how you make decisions
- What alignment actually feels like in real life
- How to stop doing emotional work for other people
